"The NAACP's principal objective is to ensure the political, educational, social and economic equality of minority group citizens of United States and eliminate race prejudice. The NAACP seeks to remove all barriers of racial discrimination through the democratic processes." -Official Website
The NAACP has been involved in many court cases (litigation) throughout history to promote civil rights and are STILL ACTIVELY INVOLVED!! They are still keeping up pressure on the Trayvon Martin case and is protesting against the "Stand Your Ground Laws" because they generate more hate crimes and homicides.
The NAACP lobbies for bills that they want passed by Congress. They also use their prominent history and reputation to push their ideas into the media. They pressured Congress into passing the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
The NAACP cannot endorse a presidential candidate and claims to be a non-partisan civil rights organization however they have a very liberal ideology. The group has a bias towards the Democratic Party. The NAACP has a history of supporting democratic candidates including FDR, Lyndon B. Johnson, and Barack Obama.
The NAACP supports gun control laws, clean air laws and pollution controls. The NAACP opposes "a la carte" which would require cable and satellite companies to provide customers TV channels on a "price per channel" basis, which would have an economically negative effect on colored people.
The main issues the organization advocates for are media diversity to prevent negative portrayals of colored people, climate justice (because climate changes have devastated colored communities), economic opportunity and justice, health programs, education opportunities, and civic engagement to increase, awareness, participation, and equality in the electoral process.
The NAACP was founded Feb 12, 1909 and is the nation's oldest civil rights organization. It was formed in response to lynching and a 1908 race riot in Springfield, Illinois. Some 60 people, seven of whom were African American, met together to discuss racial justice.
