The NAACP is the oldest & largest civil rights organization in our nation. For over 110 years the NAACP has worked to expand civil rights for ALL people, all races, colors, genders, religions, sexual orientations, national origins and age groups. We affirm that equality is NOT a charitable gift granted by the majority. “We hold these truths to be self evident that ALL [People] are created equal.” This NAACP Branch #3242 was chartered in 1944 and is run entirely by unpaid volunteers.

Intersection of Queen & King Streets, on second Saturday of each month from Noon to 1:00 p.m. Co-sponsored by NAACP, BLM, Shepherdstown Friends Meeting (Quakers), Berkeley County Unity Coalition, Women’s March WV, and many concerned citizens and Faith Congregations.
