Norfolk NAACP received threatening letter

The Norfolk branch of the NAACP was one of three branches to receive threatening letters from Baton Rouge, LA. Included in the letters to the Baltimore and New York branches was a white powdrey substance, which the Baltimore office identified as boric acid. It is unknown if Norfolk’s letter contained the powdrey substance. The FBI is investigating this as a hate crime.

  1. Stupid. Just outright idiotic. Viv, there is still hatred in this world and it still needs to be thrown into the ash-heap of history. I hope who did this is caught and punished to the full extent of the law.

  2. I’m with you. The letters were apparently sent so as to be received when the conference was over. (As it was late when I saw this, I haven’t had time to contact the Norfolk NAACP – of which I am a member – about it.)
