Maybe, but factually speaking the organization is racist against everyone who isn't black.

OK, here's the summary of the story in the OP.
The author and her husband attempted to rent booth space at the NAACP convention. The NAACP declined to rent them that space. One possible reason is that the author is repeatedly and vocally critical of the NAACP.
So, you tell me. Does the "blacklisting" of a single conservative black author constitute discrimination against black conservatives generally? Can there be justification for an organisation to refuse to rent booth space at its convention to a person who has made a career of attacking that organisation?
If the Republican Party refuses to allow Noam Chomsky (a famous leftist and anti-Republican writer) to speak at its convention, is it being discriminatory?
As a minority group the Black people in America are angry. They have every right to be. They have been lied to, tricked and deceived many times by politicians.
Yes we all miss the good old days when it was whites only ...............
This coming from a member that said; "let the westerners swim." :roll: when Calgary was flooded.
More importantly, they want to destroy America!Maybe, but factually speaking the organization is racist against everyone who isn't black.
Personally, I need more evidence than not renting booth space to one loudmouth to conclude that there's pervasive discrimination.The NAACP is an independent organization and as such, I figure that the only folks they need to answer to is their membership.
That said, my understanding of the mission is to "ensure the political, educational, social, and economic equality of rights of all persons and to eliminate race-based discrimination"
In my opinion, in not addressing these squeaky-wheels, they are doing their membership a disservice and (in a way) not upholding their mandate in 'ensuring' the political representation they identify in the mission statement.
In that respect, I do see an issue, although I think it a stretch to employ the word discrimination.
Wrong. Mitt Romney was a keynote speaker at last year's convention. This tells me that conservatives are welcome but not if they are black.Yes black people can be conservative they just are not accepted by the NAACP
That is not bigoted its a case of where the Liberals don't want Conservatives in
attending their meeting.
If you were holding a meeting and those who are not on your side wanted a place
at the table you would likely say no as well.
The organization is racist against everyone who isn't black.

So? Black people can't be conservative?
Gez, who knew?? I thought the NAACP was supposed to represent ALL Blacks. Hmmmm
It does beg the question relative to "ensure the political, educational, social, and economic equality of rights of all persons and to eliminate race-based discrimination"
