I too, stand on the shoulders of the NAACP
In life, no matter how good all of us may be, we all stand on someone’s shoulders.
We may be the very best stockbroker, the best surgeon, the most amazing teacher or radio talk show host, the greatest NFL or NBA player….but we still all stand on someone’s shoulders.
Some person, or some organization paved the way for our success. In my case, historically, and by far, it’s the NAACP.
At times, the older I get, it’s scary for me to think about what my life would have become without the NAACP historically advocating for what I call the voiceless in society. The NAACP is a “voice for the voiceless.”
According to Wikipedia: The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is a civil rights organization in the United States, formed in 1909 as an interracial endeavor to advance justice for African Americans.
