It is now time for afro-americans, hispanics and other races who are citizens of this country to stop pretending they are more important than caucasians, or asians, or hispanics, or any other race. We are all Americans, there should be no special groups for any specific race, we are all equal under the law. If caucasians were to begin a group such as the NAACP not only would cries of 'racists!' be heard from coast to coast, but Americans in general would be looked down upon in the eyes of the world as being a racist nation, even more so than it is now. With the dissolution of these separatist groups, the United States would be looked upon as what it tries to convey not only to its citizens but to the world, truly a nation of equals.
The momentum behind this effort is becoming difficult to ignore even if the path forward remains exhausting. I am tired but this response confirms that many people are finally ready to challenge these outdated divisions.

They say they are trying to get rid of all of the offensive racial things, yet they are running a group JUST for African Americans.

This is a racists organization, it does not give a care about anyone else but the Blacks, they only show up if it is white on black, they are race baiters and should be dissolved.

I agree with Amy we are a nation of all colors and religion and I don't believe there should be any color or religion to have their own special group that is what is wrong with this country now people are too divided. Let's all come together as one. What is history is why it is called history, we are today not years ago...God Bless the USA

This organizations time has come and gone. All the NAACP does is to forge increased division within this country.

If they do not dissolve it, then they must, so as not to be racist, have a NAAWP, WET, CWC, etc etc.

May have been intended to help, in the beginning; but now they merely foment racism, hatred, resentment and further the leftist agenda by providing ignorant fodder for the 'voting block' that maintains them such their power base.

It's so sad that our country has come to this in the outside world we are judged so harshly for our actions. Any group that does what this one does or promotes hate in any way is wrong. Taking down a flag so you can claim a name for ones self doesn't need to exsist . My ancestors were irish and english and they were enslaved and I'm not trying to punish anyone for it. We need to pray very hard for our country and each other.

This is all getting out of hand!! When you come and pay the bills of each state then you can say what they can and can't do!!! Enough is enough!!!
I will fly what flag I want. When I want and how I want!!! Anytime I want!!! Step on my property you better be willing to take the consequences of your actions!!!
