The Easton, PA branch of the NAACP has asked the State Theatre to cancel an appearance from Glenn Beck, a conservative TV and radio personality who called President Barack Obama racist.
NAACP Branch President Merrill Fennel asked the theater in a letter dated Aug. 24 to cancel Beck's January appearance.
The letter cites Beck's accusation that Obama, whose mother is white, has a "deep-seated hatred" for white people.
In a letter dated today, State Theatre President Shelley Brown said the theater won't cancel Beck's show.
Beck is scheduled to appear Jan. 9 at the State Theatre.

NAACP...LOL....they are the RACISTS!
I thought that we as whiteys could not use black friends or relatives as "proof" that we are not racist. Why shouldn't the same standard be universally applied?
Plenty of time to schedule a new larger venue to hold the event. Maybe in another city.
So Glenn was right? So what? Deal with it people.
If you scroll down the page of the newspaper, you’ll see many comments. This has caused a lot of controversy in the area.
Who knew that the NAACP was opposed to calling people racist??
The days when the RACE CARD was all powerful ARE OVER.
Black racists at the NAALCP trying to cancel Beck...that’s funny!
Like Saul Alinsky always said, hate and anger are strong motivators.
The Left's definition of "hate" is anything they don't want to hear.
NAACP, keeping people enslaved.
As if having a white mother means you can't hate white people.
Ironically, it was probably his white mother who taught him to hate white people.
Yes, Obama is a racist. We all are to some extent but he is a bitter man out to teach us a lesson.
You should always spell out an ACRONYM to ensure that every one knows what it means. At least the first use.
NAACP So,uh....does it mean National Automobile Association of Crazy People?????
WOW...I read them....sounds like MOST people are at least “thinking.”

Shelley is a frequent guest on Gunther’s show on WAEB in the morning. Wish Gunther had a wider audience - he’s tremendous.
It appears as though the useful idiots down at the NAALCP do not believe in First Amendment rights.
The NAACP is the biggest racist organization in this nation. They dwarf any white organization by far. Their agenda is to dominate this country with their leftist views. They are for giveaway programs that never end. They are truly a hate group practicing hate speech. They will demand reparations.
Hey... ya gotta love that the theater didn’t back down under the heat from these low lives. The tide is really turning! And we fight on!
Telling the truth is a crime, under the 0bamanation..
