Maybe they will eventually realize that the left's entire agenda is not in the best interests of Blacks.

HOw could it have escaped the African-American community that the admission of 20,000,000+ illegal alien hispanics will result in their total political marginalization.
Not really on topic, but has anyone ever explained why Blacks are apparently okay with having the term “colored” in this organization’s name?
the clintons and the kennedys: the butchers of african-americans and all other americans...
(Then, last year, the Revs. Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and Joseph Lowery kicked off a three day event in Dallas and said abortion has been used too much to block discussion of issues like voting rights and affirmative action.)
Great, so Al, Jesse and Joseph (the 3 stooges?) want the NAACP to talk about the right to vote, a right blacks have had for decades, and the preservation of affirmative action, something that has in general hurt the black population’s self-reliance. Great agenda guys! With leaders like this, who needs the KKK!
(Note to Freepers: What follows is quoted from Peterson's writing.)
After reading up on its history, I discovered that the idea of legal abortion was first popularized by a white women, Margaret Sanger, who was the founder of the National Birth Control League, which is now known as Planned Parenthood.
Sanger was a lifelong champion of birth control and Eugenics (the movement devoted to "improving" the human species by control of hereditary factors in reproduction). For a number of years she edited a magazine called the Birth Control Review. Here she gave a platform for numerous articles on these issues, often written by racists, Nazi sympathizers, and/or Eugenicists.
(Note: Margaret Sanger was also a vocal admirer of Adolph Hitler, at least until 1939. I really wish more people understood that Planned Parenthood's roots are deeply and firmly planted in the same eugenics movement that gave the world Auschwitz.)
Margaret Sanger called for the sterilization of "genetically inferior races". In 1939, she organized her "Negro Project" and wrote "the poorer areas, particularly in the South... are producing alarmingly more than their share of future generations."
Sanger wrote "The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population and the Minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members".
I was shocked to learn the number of black women who have had an abortion since the United States Supreme Court legalized it in 1973. Since that time, the number of pre-born lives extinguished is approximately 32 million which includes over ten million black babies.
That is about one third or more of the black population in the United States!
Over the past ten years, I have counseled and picketed at abortion clinics across the country. I was particularly struck one Saturday morning at a clinic in Virginia. We arrived there at 8 AM to counsel and demonstrate. The clinic opened at 9 AM. Within a one hour period, I saw at least thirty to forty young black women (some with men and some without) entering this clinic to have abortions performed as if it were NOTHING. It was like getting up and going to a restaurant for Saturday morning breakfast.
They had no shame attached to their actions. As a matter of fact, these young women and their boyfriends were angry at us for reminding them that they had another choice. I will never, ever forget the story of a young black girl I met at an abortion clinic in Los Angeles one Saturday morning. I was protesting near the clinic when I saw the young lady approach the front door.
I talked to her, and tried to encourage her to put her baby up for adoption. She said it was too late to make that decision. The young lady then told me her story. She said she had gone into the clinic that Thursday. The doctor had injected something into her womb. For three days the baby KICKED AND GASPED FOR LIFE. On the third day, the baby died. She told me that when the baby expired, it was devastating to her. She also told me she would never ever be able to overcome the experience.
I asked the girl why she chose to go through the process. She said she was encouraged to do this by her mother and boyfriend. That employees in the clinic told her she wouldn't feel anything. They said that she was carrying a fetus and NOT A BABY and that she could not afford to take care of a baby at her age. I asked how old she was. She replied that she was thirteen!
Blacks are slowly becoming anti illegal immigration as they watch their school and neighborhoods over run by Hispanics. Black youths being beaten up in schools dominated by Hispanic youths on a daily basis in LA, and the school admin dominated by Hispanics would give detention to the Hispanic attackers and suspend the Black students after the fights. This is going to be a source of division in the Dem coalition. Another thing is blacks tend to look down on homosexuals. I think within 20 years, the GOP has a very good chance of changing the black political allegiance from Dem to conservative GOP.
Locally, the NAACP has lost all of its veteran 1950’s and 1960’s civil rights leadership to old age. These are the folks who literally marked with MLKing, who went to jail, got sprayed with fire hoses, etc.
The current crop of leaders are poor leaders, and pick their fights unwisely. They don’t know what to fight for, and can’t fight if they need to. They literally are left pushing to rename a street “MLKing Blvd” as their only real mission.
The younger black leadership — the ones that obviously survived the huge abortion rate — won’t touch the local NAACP chapter with a 10-foot pole.
Of course, the liberal white people give their annual donation and lip service.
I suspect that the situation is the same all over the country.
Read it backwards, the bills are unpaid and there is no money in the bank.
Look for a whole new batch of suddenly discovered examples of ‘racism’. It’s a sure-fire way to get those contributions up.
“We are right-sizing our organization to meet present circumstances,” interim President and CEO Dennis Hayes told The Baltimore Sun.
Can you say - we have been so far left for so long we can not come back to the middle where the money is.
Bottom line - the NAACP has lost the middle and we must now get Congress to stop giving it our tax dollars.
The NACCP has long since outlived its place in America and needs to be replaced by something else - an empty trash can comes to mind right now.
I don't know what polls are showing but I can tell you that election returns -- the only polls that count -- are definitely NOT showing blacks supporting pro-life candidates!
More than 14 million abortions have been done on black women and abortion businesses are frequently located in minority communities.
Margaret Sanger's eugenic vision comes to life...
...I do not recall any time in history of (sheltered and wealthy Liberal) White women or Homosexuals having ever endured the injurious and hostile treatment Blacks suffered at the hands of the Democrat Party sanctioned Ku Klux Klan and monsters like Bull Connor and Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black, whom Franklin Delano Roosevelt, a DEMOCRAT the last time I checked, nominated for the Bench back in 1936 or 1937.
...As I told a friend of mine the other day, many Americans in the United States, specifically Blacks, suffer from what I call Historical Amnesia. No thanks in part to the lack of scruples found among our Educrats and their NEA and ATF enablers. So as far as I, a Black Conservative Woman, am concerned, the NAALCP is getting its just desserts.

Abortion is destroying the black community, along with all the other liberal social programs. Blacks make up 12% of the population, but they account for 35% of all abortions. The family in the black community is destroyed, as 70-80% of their children are born outside of wedlock. Oftentimes, the breakdown of the family leads the kids to involvement in sleeping with multiple partners, drugs, and other crime. The cycle then starts again with the next generation.

Affirmative action offered to color people simply implies that they aren’t able to stand on their own two feet without the help of whites. That is just not true. Black people are just as capable as you or I.
Abortion and contraception, as pushed by Margret Sangar, was primarily against blacks and other non Northern European peoples.
