Today, we celebrate Black freedom.

Juneteenth reminds us of the strength, resilience, and determination of those who came before us and the responsibility we share to continue building a more just future.

May we always honor our history and legacy of our ancestors. #Juneteenth!

Sixty-three years ago today, Medgar Evers returned home to his family only to be met with an assassin's bullet before he could even reach his front door. Today, we honor his courage, his sacrifice, and his unwavering dedication to the fight for justice, equity, and voting rights

105 years later, we still remember what was taken from Black Wall Street.

Today, we honor the lives lost, the stories too often left out of textbooks, and the legacy of Greenwood that still lives on. Never forgotten.

Memorial Day is a chance for us to pause as a community and recognize the extraordinary individuals whose bravery and commitment shaped the freedoms and rights we treasure today.

The NAACP and a coalition of civil rights and community organizations, filed a federal lawsuit challenging Tennessee’s newly enacted congressional map.

We’re fighting to protect our voting rights and ensure our communities are fairly represented. https://t.co/N5UcQLoqa4

[NAACP Michigan @minaacp]

Fighting for our rights has never been optional. It’s how we protect our communities, our voices, and our future.

The work continues. The fight continues.

The Supreme Court’s ruling in Louisiana v. Callais is a license to silence Black voters and rig the voting system. This is a devastating blow to our democracy and decades of work to ensure equal citizenship for Black people and all people of color. We will fight back!

Today, we’re mobilizing our grassroots networks to join the No Kings Rallies across the country in order to send a clear message; “Every elected official who abandoned their oath to represent all of us, November is coming and we will not forget.”

Yesterday, we announced Kristen Clarke, one of the most respected civil rights attorneys, as NAACP’s new General Counsel. She will lead our legal strategy, drive our litigation, and help ensure that every attempt to silence Black America is met with the full force of the law.

Congress is debating a bill that could make it harder for Americans to vote. Don’t be fooled—despite its name, the SAVE Act is voter suppression in disguise. Urge your senator to vote NO. Our democracy depends on it. https://t.co/07eSsCvLH2.

#RestInPower Rev. Jesse Jackson, a fearless advocate for civil and human rights. Rev. Jackson was not only a social justice icon—he was NAACP Family. His legacy sits at the very heart of our work and at the center of this nation’s fight for freedom and justice for all.

On this day, the NAACP was founded with one goal: to advance and protect civil rights and justice for all.

117 years later that mission still stands.

Happy NAACP Founders' Day!!!
