NAACP honcho Karen Boykin-Towns sends her kid to posh boarding school as she files suit to deny low-income Black children entry into Charter schools

This story will definitely fall through the cracks as to the national attention it deserves. The NAACP, the once vital organization who fought for the advancement of African Americans, has sadly morphed into apparatchiks of the Democrat Party.

Instead of fighting for better education for low-income Blacks, the NAACP sides with Teacher’s unions to crush the Charter school movement that out performs traditional failing public schools.

It’s a money thing, you see!

Charter schools employ teachers that are non-union. And the United Federation of Teachers hates that because they can’t collect union dues to give to Democrat politicians.

But, to add insult to insanity, a NAACP bigwig sends her daughter to an exclusive New England boarding school. She ain’t sending her kid to a failing school. But, let the poor Black folks be doomed to an inferior school system.

New York Post

A prominent NAACP leader is sending her child to a posh New England boarding school at the same time the civil-rights group is suing to block low-income parents from educating their kids in charter schools, The Post has learned.

Karen Boykin-Towns, who heads the group's Brooklyn branch and serves on its national board, enrolls her daughter, Jasmine, at the bucolic, 80-acre Brewster Academy in New Hampshire, which charges up to $45,000 in annual tuition.

Her husband is Darryl Towns, the state housing commissioner and former Brooklyn state assemblyman who voted to increase the cap on charter schools last year.


Her father-in-law is veteran Brooklyn Congressman Ed Towns.

"We know you are selective about your future . . . We're equally selective at Brewster. We want only the very best students," the school says in its brochure.

Students there study with Apple laptops and play Frisbee on the shoreline of majestic Lake Winnipesaukee, which abuts the campus.

Boykin-Towns defended the boarding-school enrollment of her daughter in light of the NAACP suit.

"I'd simply say that as a parent, the most important job you have is to provide the best opportunities possible for your children's education and success," Boykin-Towns said in an e-mail response to The Post.
