"Black History shouldn’t be treated as though it is somehow separate from our collective American history. Despite a tragic American history that saw Black people bought and sold into slavery, a continuing fight against everyday racism, and urgent issues like police brutality, we've remained strong. Black Americans confront a layered, painful past while making countless cultural contributions.
"We must continue to tell our story, our history, our truth. There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you."
Dr. Maya Angelou

NAACP Launches Black Consumer Advisory to Empower Black Consumers, Promote Corporate Accountability
The Advisory places emphasis on Black consumers' nearly $2 trillion in spending power, promoting informed spending decisions by providing the Black community with insight into who's promoting progress, and who's living in the past.
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 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.
The Voting Rights Act of 1965 remains one of the hardest-fought safeguards for Black Americans and other minority groups as it relates to voting. The power, agency, and access to vote is a civil right for all.
The most recent attempt to strengthen the right to vote is the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.
To be eligible to register to vote, applicants must:
Be a U.S. citizen for at least 30 days before the next election next election,
Be a resident of Pa & their election district for at least 30 days before the next election, and Be at least 18 years old on the date of the next election.
If you have any questions, please call 1.877.VOTESPA (1.877.868.3772).
"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.
Elections have consequences and it's clear that this election has put a target on Black America's back."
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.
