Comment in question Re: The Multiracial Activist Newsletter Written by Karen Taborn , on 29-08-1998 12:51 Editorial Retort: Get a grip. The NAACP is hostile towards multiracial identity and interracial marriages. Just ask former NAACP Washington Bureau Director, Harold McDougall. You have apparently had your head in the sand during the last two years of hearings regarding multiracial identity. McDougall has repeatedly attacked your very existence and compared the circumstances that lead to your birth to slave rape. The NAACP is currently engaging in a divisive and disgusting campaign to shut up anyone who doesn't submit to their doctrine. To say that I could do a better job of not alienating other activists by focusing on our similiarities instead of our differences is incoherent. The very people you seem to think of as allies are the most vocal and visible group in the campaign against us. You would do better to pay attention to the present instead of living in the past. There is a world of difference between Kweisi Mfume and Thurgood Marshall.
