Celebrating Black History Month
How are you celebrating Black History Month 2019?
Black History Month is observed across the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Germany and Netherlands, and from school systems to television networks, many organizations recognize the month by building Black history into their programming during the month of February.
Here at the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, this Black history month is particularly special because we’re celebrating our anniversary – we’re 110 years young, and we’re challenging all of our supporters to celebrate Black history a different way each day. Need some ideas? Head to our Facebook page for a list on how to celebrate each day this month: https://www.facebook.com/1450505098516006/posts/2325023637730810/

NAACP Calling On Attorney General’s Office To Oversee Investigation In The Shooting Death Of Iosia Faletogo By Seattle PoliceSeattle Medium "The Seattle King County Chapter of the NAACP is requesting that the Washington State Attorney General’s Office (AGO) conduct a criminal investigation of the police involved shooting death of Iosia Faletogo instead of the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office. According to the NAACP, they are looking for an independent prosecutor and independent police agency to handle the investigation in order to create dual level independence in an effort to have 'a fair, transparent and thorough criminal investigation' of the incident. 'The Attorney General’s Office is the appropriate prosecuting agency for police involved shootings,' said the NAACP in a statement. 'The voters of Washington State have spoken with the passage of I-940 by demanding a new process to provide independent investigations in police involved shootings. The AGO does not have a symbiotic relationship with the Seattle Police Department (SPD) and the AGO has the capacity to conduct a thorough investigation.'"
