From the ballot box to the classroom, the dedicated workers, organizers, and leaders who forged this great organization and maintain its status as a champion of social justice, fought long and hard to ensure that the voices of African Americans would be heard.

For nearly one hundred years, it has been the talent and tenacity of NAACP members that has saved lives and changed many negative aspects of American society.

The mission of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is to ensure the political, educational, social, and economic equality of rights of all persons and to eliminate racial hatred and racial discrimination.

Stop the Killing of Troy Davis

Stop the Killing of Troy Davis

Despite his strong claim and compelling evidence of innocence, Troy Davis, an African-American man from Georgia, faces execution for purportedly killing a police officer. Seven out of nine witnesses have recanted or contradicted their testimony, no murder weapon was found, and no physical evidence links Davis to the crime. As a matter of fact, there has never even been a court hearing on the new evidence in the case. If the Court refuses to hear his case or otherwise grant relief, his execution date could be set at any time. Tuesday, May 19th is Troy Anthony Davis Global Day of Action, and the NAACP needs your immediate help to ensure that justice is served in this case. Please sign a letter to Georgia Governor Sonny Perdue urging him to reduce Davis’ sentence and bring justice to this case!
