"We Are the Change We Seek." President Barack Obama
In the wake of nationwide protests against systemic racism in 2020, many corporations and institutions publicly committed to being more diverse, equitable, and inclusive. Five years later and some are starting to backtrack without ever meeting promises made. As businesses reverse their commitments, it is time to hold them accountable. NAACP issued the Black Consumer Advisory to inform and caution Black consumers about the ongoing and intentional rollback of nationwide diversity, equity, and inclusion commitments.

OUR ENDURING COMMITMENTS
Our "DNA"
Our purpose is grounded in three approaches woven deeply into the fabric of who we are. Collectively, we refer to them as our ‘DNA,’ and we embed them affirmatively in all our work.
NOVEMBER IS NATIONAL NATIVE AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH
Let me be a free man, free to travel, free to stop, free to work, free to trade where I choose my own teachers, free to follow the religion of my fathers, free to think and talk and act for myself, and I will obey every law, or submit to the penalty."
Heinmot Tooyalaket ( Chief Joseph), Nez Perce Leader
"If the white man wants to live in peace with the Indian, he can live in peace... Treat all men alike. Give them all the same law. Give them all an even chance to live and grow. All men were made by the same Great Spirit Chief. They are all brothers. The Earth is the mother of all people, and all people should have equal rights upon it.
"For over a century, the NAACP has been proud to galvanize the Black vote, ensuring our voices are heard on the most pressing policy issues for our community.
Let's be clear -
Our 2025 should be a year that advances the progress made in the last four years, not seek to revert it."
Together, we will remain vigilant in our mission until
the promise of America is
made real for all AMERICANS.
THE FIGHT IS FAR FROM OVER.
