The NAACP is a non patrician organization as I well know. In fact, I held a state office and was threatened with having my membership revoked for participating in patrician activities while engaged with another organization but not representing the NAACP. The organization has a policy platform just like everyone else. If views differ from the any political party, the NAACP simply speaks to the effect of the policy.

(I know that is about to open a door, but I actually want that door opened.) We need to get to the point of, "Yes I may not agree, but I recognize that we are both striving for the same goal."
I'll stick with 100 Black Men and keep it in the community.
