Countywide : NAACP to Address Defacing of Sign
Members of the Ventura County NAACP will discuss at tonight’s meeting a recent incident in which a campaign sign in a black Port Hueneme family’s yard was defaced with the initials of the Ku Klux Klan.
The letters were scrawled on a political sign for newly elected Councilwoman Toni Young in the front yard of Ulysses Farley. A U. S. Department of Justice review of the incident is under way to determine if any civil rights statute has been violated.
Nominating committee chairman Al Duff will also present the slate of officers for the chapter’s 1992 election, officials said.
The public is invited to attend the meeting, starting at 8 p.m. in the Thousand Oaks Room of the Oxnard Community Center.
