Defending Black Voter Power
Our democracy is in a crisis. The recent Supreme Court decision in Louisiana vs. Callais is a direct attack and amplifies voter suppression spreading across the country. Our fight for our Black voting rights is fueled through organizing and mobilizing to protect Black electoral power.

Redistricting 101
Redistricting, the redrawing and reshaping of voting districts, can lead to gerrymandering, which involves partisan mapmakers drawing districts that strongly favor their party by diluting the voting power of their opposition's supporters. Learn the ins and outs of how redistricting impacts your community.
Commit to Vote
The decision in Louisiana vs. Callais is a direct attack on Black voters and a failure of our justice system. Our best defense, and strongest offense, is the ballot box. Commit to vote in the midterm elections and equip your community with the tools to help shape the future of our democracy.
Redistricting, Power & Our Vote
The system of checks and balances is broken. With redistricting being used as a tactic to override Black voter communities, it aims to silence our vote and reverse decades of hard-won progress. Despite the recent Supreme Court ruling, the fight for fair maps continues.

Leveraging Our Dollars For Change
The Black Consumer Advisory informs and cautions Black consumers about the ongoing and intentional rollback of nationwide diversity, equity, and inclusion commitments.
We encourage you to spend your money where you're respected, support Black-owned businesses, and demand businesses prioritize people over profit. Above all, we must continue to advocate for policies that ensure people of color, women, veterans, those with a disability, and all protected groups have equal access to opportunities across the country.
The NAACP will continue to advocate for policies that dismantle systemic injustices and strive to improve the lives of the Black people and all Americans.
