NAACP GENERAL COUNSEL FOR MARYLAND: Attorney Charles Jerome Ware, 1988-1998

The Maryland State Chapter of the NAACP was, from about 1988 to approximately 1998, presided over by president Rev. Dr. John L. Wright.

The general counsel for the state group of 25,000 members was attorney Charles Jerome Ware, of Columbia, Howard County, Maryland.

Ware, a renowned trial lawyer, was also recipient of the prestigious "Charles Hamilton Houston Award for Oustanding Litigation", among many other honors and awards.

Civil rights pioneer and legal giant Charles Hamilton Houston (September 3, 1895-April 22, 1950) was a black lawyer who helped play a role in dismantling the Jim Crow laws and helped train future Supreme Court justice Thurgood Marshall. Known as "The Man Who Killed Jim Crow", he played a role in nearly every civil rights case before the Supreme Court between 1930 and Brown v. Board of Education (1954).

Houston's brilliant plan to attack and defeat Jim Crow segregation by using the inequality of the "separate but equal" doctrine (from the Supreme Court's Plessy v. Ferguson decision) as it pertained to public education in the United States was the master stroke that brought about the landmark Brown decision.

Attorney Charles Jerome Ware is renowned and consistently ranked among the best attorneys and legal counsellors in the United States. [GQ Magazine, The Washington Post, The Baltimore Sun, The Columbia Flier, USA TODAY, The Howard County Sun, The Anniston Star, The New York Times, et al.]
