2. Describe the work of the NAACP.
The National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People [NAACP]
was founded in 1909 by William du Bois. Membership was open to anyone
regardless of racial background. It’s main aim to bring about equality for all.
The NAACP carried out many campaigns. During the war, the NAACP
successfully campaigned for African Americans to be commissioned as
officers in the army. In 1918 they forced President Wilson to publically
condemn lynching.
The NAACP campaigned particularly against the Jim Crow Laws of the South.
It fought its first legal case in Though they failed in this case, the
organisation decided to use the law and the law courts to fight its campaign
for civil rights.
It was suggested that African Americans should go and live in Africa. Recruits
were signed up to an army that was created with the aim of driving out the
“white invader” from Africa. Steamships were also bought to take black
Americans “back to Africa”.
They also put pressure on the KKK. In 1920, they intentionally picked Atlanta
for their conference; the city was known as an active KKK area and this was a
sign that violence and general intimidation would have no impact on the
organisation.
