AUGUST 2021 GENERAL MEMBERSHIP MEETING
Join us for our August General Membership Meeting. We will be joined by a representative from FEMA who will discuss flood assistance and how to apply for support.
FIGHTING FOR OUR VOTE
The fight for voting rights and voter protections remains as critical as ever. Following the Capitol Hill insurrection on January 6, 2021, various State Legislatures across the country passed arcane legislation that legitimizes voter suppression by activating impediments to voter registration, implementing cutbacks on early voting and voting by mail, and requiring strict voter identification obstacles.
Join us for the kickoff of our voting rights mobilization campaign. Click here, Fighting For Our Vote, to RSVP.

PRESS RELEASE - WE TOO HAVE SERIOUS CONCERNS ABOUT DETROIT POLICE DEPARTMENT ACTIONS!
“The recent knockout of a young black man by a Detroit police officer, as he walked backwards in Downtown Detroit raises very serious concerns. These concerns go directly to police policy and protocol. Does this reflect the kind of community policing so desperately needed in cities across the country?”

PRESS STATEMENT - THE PROPOSED REVISIONS OF THE DETROIT CITY CHARTER
“The NAACP has long since its inception believed in the fundamental right to vote. It is one of the pillars on which the organization stands. In that spirit, the Detroit Branch NAACP must oppose any attempt which may directly or indirectly impede, negate, or eliminate the right of the people to cast their vote and exercise their constitutional rights. “
PRESS STATEMENT - LET’S GO BACK TO SCHOOL
The ability to train, inspire, and facilitate the dreams and aspirations of youth can’t ever be completely measured. Teachers are invaluable. Parents are the key to what their children will aspire to be. Schools are repositories for academic learning, social development, duty and responsibility, unity, and community. They help to establish both purpose and priorities.
