NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund

Today, the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Inc. (LDF), the National Urban League (NUL), and the National Fair Housing Alliance (NFHA) filed a federal lawsuit challenging the Trump Administration’s “Executive Order on Combating Race and Sex Stereotyping” on the grounds that it violates the guarantees of Free Speech, Equal Protection, and Due Process – fundamental rights secured in the United States Constitution. In addition, The African American Policy Forum (AAPF) has launched the #TruthBeTold campaign to rescind the order and raise awareness for the need for even deeper engagement on and examination of issues of race, gender, intersectionality, and justice.
