The @naacp boycott request is not asking Black athletes to avoid every school in the South. It is focused on specific institutions, while also encouraging athletes, fans, and supporters to redirect their attention, resources, and influence toward HBCUs.⁠
⁠
This is an important distinction as the conversation continues.⁠

What are your thoughts? ⁠

We have more power than we know. It’s time to take a stand.

@garrisonh recently broke down the @NAACP’s #OutofBounds campaign, our movement to fight back against attacks on our voting rights.

Today, the Alabama Federal Court rejected a new gerrymandered map, ruling that it was discriminatory to Black voters in the state. NAACP President and CEO @DerrickNAACP had this to say:

"We applaud the Alabama Federal Court’s ruling today, preserving Black representation. Redrawing maps to silence the voices of entire communities cannot be tolerated. It goes against the very values of democracy that our ancestors fought and died for.

Our chapters in Alabama mobilized to reject this map, and we will continue to fight across the country to protect our voice. Today’s ruling is good news, but we know it is not the end of this fight."

Black women have always known the power of our vote.

Memorial Day is a chance for us to pause as a community and recognize the extraordinary individuals whose bravery and commitment shaped the freedoms and rights we treasure today.

Honoring them is about choosing, every day, to stand up for the same values they believed were worth the ultimate sacrifice: fairness, justice, and dignity for all.

Voting rights were never just a Black issue. The freedoms many immigrants, women, and marginalized communities have today were built on the sacrifices of Black activists, organizers, and Freedom Summer volunteers who risked — and lost — their lives for democracy.

We’ve been seeing the questions around #OutofBounds, so let’s talk about it 👀

The campaign is about calling out the contradiction of states and institutions benefiting from Black talent while actively working against Black communities and Black political power.

This is bigger than sports, and the conversation is only getting started.

Our ancestors fought too hard for us to sit this out.

Protecting our right to vote at all costs ✊🏽

The energy in Jackson, MS right now is electric. We are standing shoulder to shoulder at the Mississippi Fights Back! Rally for Voting Rights to demand fair representation and push back against a rigged system.

When the Supreme Court attacked our voting rights last month, they tried to silence everyday people. Today, we are showing them that we refuse to back down.

Mississippi called a special session TODAY to erase the only Black congressman in this state. So we showed up. All of us. On their doorstep. In their streets. Let them see what they’re fighting against.
