National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) vs
National Association for the Advancement of Black People (NAABP) -
A MESSAGE TO "BLACK/AFRICAN AMERICANS" LEADERS - THE TIME IS NOW!
The question remains - where will our future leaders take us - at some point one begin to realize - we ourselves meaning "Black/African Americans" continue to allow "Society" to identify us as "COLORED PEOPLE" - we have "NEVER" been "COLORED PEOPLE" the word itself is no longer in Webster Dictionary!
To this day, our leaders have not discussed changing or rebranding an organization that serves the Black culture. It's time for such a discussion, all organizations that identify with being "COLORED" should also consider this change NOW!
We as a "People" should no longer identify ourselves as "COLORED" - your support is needed to make this a reality for our future generations.

"National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), interracial American organization created to work for the abolition of segregation and discrimination in housing, education, employment, voting, and transportation; to oppose racism; and to ensure African Americans their constitutional rights. The NAACP was created in 1909 by an interracial group consisting of W.E.B. Du Bois, Ida Bell Wells-Barnett, Mary White Ovington, and others concerned with the challenges facing African Americans, especially in the wake of the 1908 Springfield (Illinois) Race Riot. Some of the founding members had been associated with the Niagara Movement, a civil rights group led by Du Bois." #Britannica
