Tim Scott's name was blasted all over the news as being the first black senator to be elected since re-construction. Mia Love is the first black republican woman to elected elected to congress. These are great accomplishments by people of color yet it gets completely ignored by the NAACP.
NAACP is only for those colored people who share the ideology that whites are not the master race. How bigoted of them.
Tim Scott and Mia Love also share that ideology.....yet the NAACP will not acknowledge that their successes help further that ideology.
Your claim is stupid.

You seem to be making my case.
Well, not "an" ideology, per se... and ok.
The NAACP is that in name only. It's not about "colored people" anymore; rather, it's about civil rights for "all Americans". They're extremely upfront about that. What's the problem with that?
It sounds like we are in agreement. The NAACP name is misleading.
