Missing Alabamians

BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED, that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, call upon the United States Department of Justice to initiate an immediate investigation of the circumstances surrounding the disappearance and subsequent deaths of six African-American young people in Coffee County, Alabama.  The NAACP is disturbed by the lack of urgency on the part of state and local officials in the State of Alabama and believes that an outside investigation is required in order to secure the trust of the African-American community and to ensure that justice is secured in this case.
