Webb and 2016 to present Betty Williams EARLY HISTORY OF GREATER SACRAMENTO NAACP BRANCH In 1914, five years after the national office of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was organized, 20 NAACP leaders traveled to the West Coast to organize NAACP chapters. The purpose of the chapters was to fight segregation and to stop the lynching of colored people. However, there were other issues such as fair employment and the right to live as human beings in America. Chapters were organized in San Francisco, Oakland, and Seattle, Washington. Two years later in, August 1916, the Sacramento Branch NAACP was organized. The first president was Rev. T. Allen Harvey, pastor of Kyles Temple, A.M.E. Zion Methodist Church. Issues facing the Sacramento NAACP ranged from kidnappings (it was not unusual for a White person to kidnap a mulatto boy and take him home to raise as a house boy) to lynching’s. The local churches played a major role in organizing the Sacramento NAACP. All of the NAACP meetings were held in local churches. Contributions from Black and White churches came regularly to the NAACP. Other major issues that faced the Sacramento NAACP was the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) that met and organized on Palm Sunday 1923, in a church at 13th and K Streets. Records of a correspondence show that the Klan had recently hanged a colored boy in the city of Oakland, the same year, by the name of Alfred Ellis. Oakland and San Francisco branches contacted Sacramento and asked for help to get an anti-lynching bill in the U.S. Congress. On April 17, 1923, then president of the NAACP, Fred Hughes called a mass meeting to discuss the anti-lynch bill. Supporters, Blacks and Whites, came. At the end of the meeting everyone stood, shoulder to shoulder, and sang the song, “The Fight is On,” and pledged to keep the Klan out of Sacramento. That same evening a resolution was drafted against the Klan and sent to the leading White organizations in Sacramento, asking them to speak out against the Klan.

HISTORY OF GREATER SACRAMENTO YROTS ERUTAEF NAACP BRANCH BETTY WILLIAMS However, there was a group of successful leaders, wealthy Sacramento citizens, who believed in the Klan. To protest the actions of the NAACP and its White supporters, this wealthy group of Sacramento businessmen sponsored the movie, “Klansmen” in one of the local movie houses. The Sacramento City Manager spoke out against the movie and denounced the activities of the wealthy citizens. The Sacramento NAACP was so pleased that a letter was sent to the city manager commending him for speaking out on their behalf. The businessmen called the city manager “unAmerican.” The concern for the image of Negroes image in books and the local newspapers was another concern of the Sacramento NAACP. On October 19, 1925, the Sacramento Bee published an article titled, “Pickininny.” The Sacramento NAACP discussed the article in a meeting and finally decided to form a delegation of members to visit the Bee. The group was formed and went to see the administration to complain. The Bee representative tried to convince the NAACP delegation that the “Pickininny” story was a good moral story that carried no harm. NAACPers turned to a female employee for help. She tried to get the Sacramento Bee to publish an open apology in the paper. The Sacramento Bee refused. It was then that the Sacramento NAACP went out to gain support. For four weeks, they walked the streets and asked every Negro they could find if they had read the “Pickininny” story. They also asked the same person to speak out against the Sacramento Bee. The NAACP could not find one Negro to say anything against the Sacramento Bee, nor would they say anything against the “Pickininny” story. The issue was dropped. The Sacramento NAACP challenged another issue relating to Negro imagery. The issue was in 1925 in the Sacramento Union, an article on the merits of the local KKK. A series of discussions on the investigation of this issue proved fruitless, so the issue was dropped. The National Office encouraged the chapters to begin an aggressive letter writing campaign, a weapon to fight racism in the media. When author, lecturer, Dr. W.E.B. Du Bois came to Sacramento to speak to the Sacramento Branch on January 19, 1925, the Negroes could not find a public hall to use. Dr. Du Bois had requested the opportunity to speak to a racially mixed audience. Several White citizens had offered to help find a place, though they were unsuccessful. Several citizens had tried to get the County Supervisors’ Hall and were refused. However, both Blacks and Whites heard the famous speaker at the St. Andrews Church. There was a standing room only audience that day. In May of the same year, 1925, Congressman L.C. Dyer requested permission to speak to the Sacramento Branch NAACP on anti-lynching, a bill he was writing in Congress. After much consideration, the NAACP was granted permission to use the Supervisors Hall of the County Court House. The meeting was a success. One hundred-and-twenty people joined the NAACP that day. In 1929, the stock market broke. Banks closed. Bread lines began to form. Sugar sold for 3 cents a pound and bushel of corn was 25 cents. The NAACP meeting attendance dropped off. The Chapter President, Fred Brooks and Vice President Netta Cotes Sparks met to discuss the future of the organization. There was no money, no jobs, and no interest. The Sacramento Branch NAACP lost its charter. In 1931, two years later, a small group of Black men huddled in secrecy, down by the river, to discuss the economic conditions of the poor Blacks in Sacramento. Large signs that read, WE DO NOT SOLICIT COLORED TRADE were displayed in hotel windows and public places throughout Sacramento.

HISTORY OF GREATER SACRAMENTO YROTS ERUTAEF NAACP BRANCH BETTY WILLIAMS There were Frank Canson, a tailor, born and reared in Alabama; Rev. D.D. Mattocks, pastor of Kyles Temple A.M.E.Z. Methodist Church, born in South Carolina; Bill “Odd Card” Williams; and Douglas McFarland. As the four men sat eyeing the rows of shanties that lined 7th Street, they discussed the problems of flooding that was so prevalent in the area. Educational opportunities for the Negro children, jobs for the citizens on the police force, the fire department, in the schools, the list was long. A campaign to launch an active NAACP chapter was discussed. On April 13, 1936, the Sacramento Branch NAACP received its official charter. 6 PAGE 6 PAGE 7 Justice: such a small word. Yet the meaning of the word and its practice, carries significance that has altered the course of history. In a democratic society, justice is the cornerstone on which free nations are built. Sacramento attorney Nathaniel S. Colley Sr., never wilted from the challenges he encountered when defending the word, “justice.” Whether he fought for racial justice in education, housing, labor, employment, or civil rights, Colley was proven to be one of America’s champion advocates. It was through his efforts that the court ruled that “mere receipt of federal housing benefits” prohibits racial discrimination in the sale of private housing. Attorney Colley also successfully had the courts require all financial institutions to pay homeowners on impounded and loan trust accounts. His work as regional counsel for the NAACP brought him into the forefront of the affirmative action and equal opportunity struggles in the state of California. Colley sought to increase the numbers of African Americans in the law enforcement, fire and safety, education, and other public employment ranks. Nathaniel Colley left an indelible mark on the history of Sacramento, one that few will be able to challenge. His hard work, dedication and unyielding desire for equality helped shape Sacramento into a model metropolitan city that today boasts of its multicultural communities and expansive range of opportunity for all citizens. A burning desire to see justice and equality for African Americans, and for all people of color, was the impetus that forged a smalltown girl from Oklahoma, named Virna Canson, to become one of the most distinguished civil rights leaders on the West Coast during the turbulent 1960s and 1970s. Ms. Canson became a devoted worker for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). In Sacramento, she helped to develop and direct the NAACP Credit Union. Her efforts there, providing loans for families and businesses and assisted many individuals and business firms during financially challenging times. Ms. Canson later worked for the regional office of the NAACP, directing the legislative efforts for the powerful association. During that time, she became California’s most influential civil rights lobbyist. In 1974, she succeeded the late Leonard H. Carter as the West Coast Regional Director for the NAACP. As director, Ms. Canson became a tireless campaigner for the rights of people in all the Western United States, including Alaska and Hawaii. Her efforts resulted in the creation of new housing laws, fair employment practices, programs, and opportunities for upward mobility for African Americans in both the private and public sectors. Ms. Canson’s unshakable campaign for justice impacted the lives of millions of Californians. The local chapter of the NAACP has always had a friend in Alice A. Huffman. While the veteran leader and organizer has never served as President of the Sacramento NAACP, Ms. Huffman has continuously lent counsel to branch leadership. Ms. Huffman is one of the nation’s most powerful political voices.
