We are NAACP
We are the home of grassroots activism for civil rights and social justice.
We advocate, agitate, and litigate for the civil rights due to Black America.
In our cities, schools, companies, and courtrooms, we are the legacy of W.E.B. Du Bois, Ida B. Wells, Thurgood Marshall, and many other giants.
