NAACP

National Association for the Advancement of Colored People

An organization founded in 1909 dedicated to equality for black Americans. Famous for legal cases such as Brown vs. Board of Education in Kansas and for various protests against discrimination.

Now famous for leaders such as former president Kweisi Mfume, who supported Khalid Abdul Muhammad and for championing a lawsuit against gun manufacturers for causing the deaths of a disproportionate number of black citizens due to handguns.
