Congress of
Racial Equality
"Founded in
1942, CORE is the third oldest and one of
the "Big Four" civil rights groups in the
United States. From the protests against
"Jim Crow" laws of the 40's to the "Sit-ins"
of the 50's and the "Freedom Rides" of the
60's; through the cries for
"Self-Determination" in the 70's and "Equal
Opportunity" in the 80's to the struggle for
community development in the 90's, CORE has
championed true equality for all people."

National
Association for the Advancement of Colored
People (NAACP)
A historic
civil rights organization that has
championed the cause of equality for
African-Americans and other minorities. "The
history of the NAACP, is one of blood sweat
and tears. From bold investigations of mob
brutality, protests of mass murders,
segregation and discrimination, to testimony
before congressional committees on the
vicious tactics used to bar African
Americans from the ballot box, it was the
talent and tenacity of NAACP members that
saved lives and changed many negative
aspects of American society."
