California History
The NAACP, or the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, is a civil rights organization founded in 1909 to fight for social justice and equality for African Americans. It played a crucial role during the early 20th century, particularly as demographic and social changes occurred during wartime, by advocating against racial discrimination and promoting civil rights legislation. The organization aimed to challenge and dismantle systemic racism through legal challenges, advocacy, and public awareness campaigns.
