It...If authentic, this memo is quite enlightening. It shows an organization that does not want to let go of the status quo, interested in remaining stagnant. It may demonstrate a Julian Bond who was hurt by Bruce Gordon's resignation and pulled strong-arm tactics to solidify Gordon's decision to resign. It is a shame.<BR/><BR/>Because the NAACP is a non-profit organization, there are policies and procedures that apply specifically to that type of organization. Having said that, it seems as though Gordon already knew that, and that he knew what he could and could not do. But it appears as though he stepped on some toes in an effort to improve the reputation of the organization, and the toe steppees didn't appreciate it. <BR/><BR/>I wish Bruce Gordon well. He is versatile and will be successful in other endeavors. <BR/><BR/>The NAACP - I'm not so sure.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
