Yesterday, (June 16th) Trump’s Department of Justice stepped in to help Elon Musk's xAI avoid accountability for alleged violations of the Clean Air Act.

Not by arguing that xAI followed the law, but by arguing that the government should be able to stop communities from suing polluters in the first place and that national security does not include stopping environmental harms in communities.

That's dangerous.

STOP ILLEGAL POLLUTERS >>

The NAACP sued xAI over its operation of dozens of unpermitted gas turbines, now almost 60 on site, tied to its massive data center project near Memphis — pollution that threatens the health of Black communities and families across the region.

Now, the DOJ is backing an argument and a trillionaire that could weaken one of the most important tools communities have to hold polluters accountable: citizen lawsuits.

If powerful corporations can get special treatment, what happens to everyone else?

At a time when the ultra-rich seem to be protected by some of our government institutions, polluting industries should not get to profit at the expense of Black communities' health.

The NAACP is fighting back in court. But this fight will take resources.

Will you make an urgent donation today to help us defend clean air, community rights, and the principle that no corporation is above the law?


P.S. This case isn't just about xAI. It's about whether communities will continue to have the right to stand up to illegal pollution when government agencies refuse to act.

In solidarity,

Last night Cumberland County, NC Government voted 7-0 to pass a 6 month data center moratorium! This would not have been possible without YOU! Whether you were a resident or one of the many organizations working to educate/mobilize the public, our voice has POWER and don't you ever forget it! While many in the community were hoping for at least a 1 year moratorium, there was discussion from the Board that if the County feels they can't accomplish everything they need to during this time period, they will set a public hearing to pass another moratorium (essentially extending this one. But legally it won't be considered an extension). The moratorium expires December 15, 2026.

Please note: this moratorium will ONLY affect unincorporated areas of the County. Each city/town still has to pass their own moratorium for it to apply within City/Town limits. Keep your eyes peeled for any elected officials discussing annexing county land.

Thank you to: Action NC RAGE, Fayetteville Resistance Coalition, Fayetteville NAACP, PSL Fayetteville NC, Organizing Against Racism: Cumberland County, Sustainable Sandhills, SELC

If the County can do it, so can City of Fayetteville, NC Government!

Family, Friends,

Pride Month is a celebration of authenticity, courage, and community. It’s a time to honor the countless LGBTQIA+ individuals whose advocacy, resilience, and leadership have helped move our nation closer to justice.

This month, we are also proud to highlight our partnership with PFLAG, one of the nation’s leading organizations supporting LGBTQIA+ people, their families, and allies.

Together, the NAACP and PFLAG are committed to advancing dignity, equity, and opportunity while confronting discrimination in all its forms. Our partnership reflects a shared belief that every person deserves to live openly, safely, and free from fear.

The fight for civil rights has always been interconnected. When any community faces exclusion or injustice, our collective progress is threatened.

We will continue to build partnerships that strengthen our ability to advocate for policies, protections, and opportunities that allow every person to thrive.

This Pride Month, we celebrate the leaders, advocates, families, and allies who continue the work of building a more inclusive future.
In Unity,

Demar Roberts
Chair, LGBTQIA+ Committee

Family, Friends,

As we approach , we're reminded that has . Every generation has had to fight to secure it.

Today, that fight is unfolding in statehouses and courtrooms across the South.

In Tennessee, lawmakers dismantled the state's only majority-Black congressional district. In Florida, elected officials pushed through a congressional map that threatens to weaken the voices of Black voters and communities of color, and in Texas, five districts represented by Black legislators have been totally erased.

These are not isolated incidents. They are part of a coordinated effort to redraw political power and silence communities that have fought for generations to be heard.

NAACP is fighting back through litigation, advocacy, organizing, and voter mobilization but we need your help now more than ever. Donate today and join the fight to protect freedom.

Following the Supreme Court's decision in Louisiana v. Callais, the stakes have never been higher.

That's why we're bringing together leaders to build a state-by-state strategy to defend voting rights, challenge discriminatory maps, and protect Black political influence through 2026 and beyond.

This Juneteenth, honor the legacy of those who fought for our freedom by helping us defend our democracy.

Forward together,

Denise Harris

Why African (Black) Americans Should Celebrate America’s 250th Anniversary
Date & Time Jun 14, 2026 08:00 PM Eastern Time
Description
As the United States approaches its 250th Anniversary, African Americans have a unique and indispensable story to tell. Too often, Black history is framed solely through the lens of struggle and exclusion. Yet, the American story cannot be told without recognizing the extraordinary contributions of Black Americans who have defended the nation, expanded democracy, built economic power, shaped culture, and advanced the ideals of freedom and justice for all. Join the NAACP Armed Services & Veterans Affairs Committee for a timely and thought-provoking conversation exploring why the Semi quincentennial is a moment for reflection, recognition, and engagement. Through political, informational, military, and economic perspectives, distinguished veterans, scholars, and community leaders will examine the role African Americans have played in shaping the nation over the past 250 years—and why our contributions must be centered in the story of America’s future. Participants will gain historical insights, learn about the legacy of Black military service and civic leadership, and explore how honoring our past can strengthen our collective vision for the next 250 years.

This timely discussion will explore the vital role Black Americans have played in shaping our nation’s history—from military service and civic leadership to economic advancement and the ongoing struggle to expand democracy. Distinguished veterans, historians, scholars, and community leaders will examine how African Americans have helped move America closer to its founding ideals and why our stories must be central to the nation's Semi quincentennial commemoration.

Participants will gain valuable historical perspectives, engage with thought leaders from across the country, and explore how we can honor our collective legacy while helping shape the next chapter of American history.

We encourage all state conference leaders, unit officers, Armed Services & Veterans Affairs Committee members, youth leaders, veterans, and community partners to attend and share this opportunity throughout your networks.
In Solidarity,

Cedric Haynes
Senior Vice President, Policy and Legislative Affairs
