NAACP Sensitive About its Abortion Ties
The NAACP is threatening to sue the Radiance Foundation for trademark infringement.
The NAACP is upset because the Radiance Foundation revealed the former civil rights organization’s support for abortion and close ties with Planned Parenthood. Foundation founder Ryan Bomberger said the NAACP threatened to sue them unless they remove every reference to their name and seal. Bomberger says “They’re particularly irked by the fact that we have given them, satirically, the name of the ‘National Association for the Abortion of Colored People.’”
The Radiance Foundation has responded by filing a suit of its own. Alliance Defending Freedom is representing the Radiance Foundation and has gone to court asking for a judge to rule in the Foundation’s favor.
