Hello Ladies and gentlemen I stand here before you as a concerned Human Being and a U.S. citizen representing the NAACP. Most of you are familiar with the organization,
and for those of you who arent we are the NAACP. The National Association For The Advancement of Color People .We strive to amend the injustices committed towards the advancement of color people in this world in which we are all a part of. So as I stand here before you I am reminded of our natural right as beings of this free world to assemble and practice free speech as indicated by the I amendment. This great right has been enforced by our Constitution. Ladies and Gentlemen I come forth today to speak about the future of this Nation.

We have been in this country since its conception the(African Americans) are the reason for its conception and its only now that some progress has been made towards freedom and equality for blacks in America.

We the NAACP are here as the voice for the Southern African Americans who are subject to being lynched at anytime without due process of the law. With this being said I would like direct everyone to the writings of Ida B. Wells. She is A prominent writer and has had her life threatened numerous times for exposing the cruelty and utter racism going on in the south. from as recent 1892 through the 1900s. Wells exposed exactly how the Fourteenth Amendment means nothing in the South right now. She does this by giving counts of unjustly murders of the African Americans of the South by the white mobs running rampant in the south who have gone unpersecuted in lynchings in the South. Imagine coming home finding your husband or wife missing, only to find out a mob abducted her and has lynched her, and with nothing but an allegation to defend the lynching?
As Wells Stated
