NAACP Portland

Warmest wishes to everyone for the new year! Despite the troubles that have beset the Portland Branch of the NAACP this autumn, the indefatigable Rachel Talbot Ross and many allies and friends have come together to create a series of events to celebrate the birthday and legacy of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Now more than ever, we can support the work of racial justice and the dignity and worth of all people, by supporting this organization that has been on the front lines for so long. One of the issues faced by the branch was declining membership. Margy and I just renewed our memberships. This is one simple way to support the national and local work for justice. It costs $30 for a regular membership and you can join or renew online at http://www.naacp.org/pages/membership. When you are prompted, indicate that your local branch is #2038, the Portland Branch. Thank you!
Rev. Myke
The theme of this years activities is the Global Struggle for Freedom. You can find out about the events at http://naacp.me/2016/#MLK.
