Blacks have been thrown under the proverbial bus once again. Leadership in the Black Community have failed them time and time again. How could this happen. The NAACP, founded in 1909, to advance justice for African Americans. The difference between the NAACP and other civil rights organizations is that they prefer litigation rather than activism. Gaining critical mass, the philosophy of the NAACP changed to not only include Blacks but all people of color who face discrimination. This was a colossal mistake.

As the American LGBT rights movement gained steam after the Stonewall riots of 1969, the NAACP became increasingly affected by the movement to gain rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. Julian Bond, While chairman of the NAACP, Bond became an outspoken supporter of the rights of gays and lesbians and stated his support for same-sex marriage. This was a grave error, for other organizations were able to carry the Rainbow Flag.

Bond boycotted the 2006 funeral services for Coretta Scott King, as he said the King children had chosen an anti-gay megachurch. This was in contradiction to their mother’s longstanding support for the rights of gay and lesbian people. In a 2005 speech in Richmond, Virginia, Bond said: African Americans … were the only Americans who were enslaved for two centuries, but we were far from the only Americans suffering discrimination then and now. … Sexual disposition parallels race. I was born this way. I have no choice. I wouldn’t change it if I could. Sexuality is unchangeable. BIG MISTAKE, and Blacks should see what came next.

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a landmark federal law that prohibits discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, and national origin. Signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson on July 2, 1964, it outlawed segregation in public facilities, integrated schools, and made employment discrimination illegal. The Act also provided a basis for federal enforcement of these anti-discrimination measures and is considered one of the most significant legislative achievements in U.S. history.  

As anyone of sane mind would attest, the NAACP was instrumental in passing the 1964 legislation, however they did not realize at the time the future ramifications of what they done. As hispanics began the influx into the country, legal and illegal, the ramifications of what they did should have become clear. For instance, bilingual eduation became the norm. This diverted funds from Blacks who suffered discrimination beyond repair, who should have been the recipient of these diverted funds. Today, we see the end result as the influx of illegals saturates the country. WAKE UP BLACKS before you will become slaves once again.
