In this quote, Thurgood Marshall is talking about the time between the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation (which was supposed to free slaves in the Confederacy) to the Brown vs. Board case which ruled that "separate but equal" is unconstitutional.
The reason he brings up these two events is because it shows how little progress American society has changed in these 90 years.

They were constantly targets of voter discrimination, violence, and prejudice.

Prior to becoming president, he was the 20th Vice President, and he chose not to have a Vice President during his term. He became president after James A Garfield died. Prior to 1854, he was part of the Whig Party. However, from 1854 until his death in 1886, he was a republican.
He was born on the 5th October 1829 and died on 18th November 1886- at the age of 57.
