Milwaukee, WI - Glass and VETS for Social Justice protested the 2010 NAACP Election in Milwaukee by marching, chanting and praying on Saturday, November 20, 2010 across the street from Metropolitan Baptist Church, 1345 W. Burleigh
Mary Glass, Chair/CEO, Milwaukee Professionals Association, was suspended by the the national office of the NAACP - National Association for the Advancement Colored People on November 1, 2010 after being a member for 83 days - for following the 2010 NAACP Election Nominating Committee Policies. Glass and 7 other members of the NAACP members have been suspended with "trumped-up" and "misrepresented" causes. The Suspensions were signed by Ben Jealous, President/CEO.
The Suspensions by Jealous have been with a disregard of the NAACP policies for governing.
Glass and other 8 suspended members were given a 15-day window for an Appeal.
Report of Repudiation
Glass, unlike the others, chose to send a Report of Membership Repudiation. In it, she identifies errors, misrepresentation by Jealous, Chairwoman Roslyn Brock and/or the cast of ccs on her suspension. Glass says none of them had presented her with a Membership packet or do's and don'ts for compliance. She also cited inconsistences of the suspension OR "picking-and-choosing" of certain people for suspension. She cited her suspension and the other members of the 2010 Nominating Committee (all 7 Nominating Committee members) as Bogus and Vindictive.
Lastly, she vowed to do her appeal in the "court of public opinion" and the "court of law" - citing members of the national staff as desecrating the brand of the NAACP and placing a stain on the African American race.
Did This Happen to You?
This is one of many CALLS for similar wrongdoings to committed members either running for office, announcing a candidacy in opposition to status quo candidate, disallowing an elected members to conduct business by implementing suspension and/or arbitrary and capricious acts of the appearance of the mafia by Ben Jealous, Roger Vann (chief officer to Jealous) and Rev. Gil Ford across America.
Further, Glass is seeking to create a delegation of participants at the 2011 OPERATION: RE-BOOT Bottom-Up Recovery and Social Justice Conference to be held in Milwaukee. They will address critical quality of life and economic development issues that are creating a wider disparity for People of Color and the Work-Challenged. In addition, the injustices found by the recent and not so recent acts (patterns) caused by the NAACP will also be dealt with.
