Bruce Gordon Steps Down as Head of NAACP

I, myself, have wondered what the role of the NAACP is during this time in our nation. What direction is it going in? Too many chiefs and not enough Indians....that can be a problem. I agree with Bruce Gordon, who stepped down as president of the NAACP. Its one thing to be an advocate but the NAACP needs to provide the services for the community. One of his examples was advocating equal opportunity in employment and fair wages and THEN educating the black community on personal financial responsibility, the importance of credit ratings, investment, etc.
