ACLU of NC
GroupThe ACLU is a radical liberal union of over 200 staff attorneys and “thousands” of volunteer attorneys that uses the Judicial system to fundamentally change American traditions and values. The founder of the ACLU, Roger N. Baldwin stated: “I am for socialism, disarmament, and, ultimately, for abolishing the state itself… I seek the social ownership of property, the abolition of the propertied class, and the sole control of those who produce wealth. Communism is the goal.”
ACLU of NC belongs to four radical liberal political networks in North Carolina: Z Smith Reynolds Foundation, Democracy NC, Moral Mondays and Blueprint NC. Blueprint NC is the left-wing group that gained infamy with their “eviscerate, mitigate, litigate, cogitate and agitate” the state’s leadership memo in 2013.
