114th NAACP National Convention

NAACP Concludes Week of “Thriving Together” in Boston for 114th National Convention

Last week, the NAACP concluded its 114th National Convention which took place in Boston, Massachusetts beginning on Wednesday, July 26. The week consisted of impactful programming, an interactive and immersive experience at The Hub, and thought-provoking panel discussions and remarks from some of the most distinguished speakers and guests in the civil rights and social advocacy space.

NAACP President & CEO Derrick Johnson released the following statement expressing his gratitude and enthusiasm in light of a successful 114th NAACP National Convention:

“During this year’s NAACP National Convention, we saw the impact of power and unity in our community. Through compelling conversations on every pressing issue from the preservation of Black history in schools, to the importance of stopping hate wherever it rears its ugly head, our time in Boston was a success. We have reaffirmed our commitment to justice and the pursuit of a society where we all thrive together. Now that we have devised a comprehensive plan to propel justice forward throughout the year, it is time for us to take the lessons learned back to our communities. Through our unified, strategic efforts, we will continue to build a brighter future for Black America.”
