NAACP Urging Black Americans to Avoid Businesses Ditching DE
Breitbart ^ | 02/17/2025 | Hannah Knudsen

The NAACP, the oldest civil rights organization in the country, is urging black Americans to avoid businesses ditching diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts.

“Attention, corporations: if you want our dollars, it’s time to do the right thing,” the organization said on social media over the weekend, announcing the launch of the Black Consumer Advisory, described as “a framework designed to keep our community informed on who’s pushing progress and who’s stuck in the past.”

We have the power to choose where we spend our money. I am confident that this framework will support our community as we make difficult decisions on where to spend our hard-earned money,” NAACP President Derrick Johnson said.

People not worried are owners of swimsuit stores.

Liquor store owners, however...

How many federal dollars—direct and indirect—go to NAACP?

What percent of their annual budget is it?

Hopefully this will be the year we find out the answers.

Don’t shoplift at these stores until they bring DEI back!

It’s about time they came up with a way to get blacks to save their money and stop blowing it all trying to look n***** rich.

The most racist of them all. Blacks don’t seem to be having trouble getting good jobs when you watch TV and they drive by your house in their new cars. DEI (affirmative action) is a disgrace. The NAACP are telling blacks that they don’t stand a chance at getting a good job.

It’s like they are saying “Black people are stupid”. Really? Because that’s BS.

A variation on the standard shakedown routine.

The NAACP obviously thinks mighty low of black people.

If the Nation Association for the Advancement of Colored People wants to boycott businesses doing away with D-I-E, those businesses should make sure they don’t send a dime to this racist outfit.

They were once a civil rights champion... now they exist to perpetuate the grift.

Well, let’s see...13% of the population that controls maybe 4% of the wealth. I don’t think they have much leverage going for them.

People not worried are owners of swimsuit stores.

I learned from PBS a couple of days ago that black people don’t swim because of slavery. Howard U. swim coach (and Howard alum, though he looks pretty white) Nic Askew said that aboriginal blacks grew up around water, fishing and diving for pearls, and generally frolicking in their idyllic homelands. Then came the slave traders. Once sold into slavery, the blacks were conditioned to stay away from water, as it was seen as a means of escape. Black mothers, having seen others shot, or severely punished for being in the water would tell their babies to stay away from the water. So, you see...it’s whitey’s fault that blacks are not able to swim.

My guess is nearly all of their funding is our money.
