NAACP denies report - Newsbytes - Brief Article

* Kweisi Mfume, president and CEO of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), denies a report published in The Washington Times about the NAACP planning to open an office in Cuba. "We had no discussions with Cuban government officials or citizens regarding a possible NAACP branch in that country during our recent goodwill and trade mission to that nation," Mfume said in a prepared statement.

"Our four-day trip was part of the NAACP's historical mission to establish people-to-people contacts both inside and outside of the United States."
