Founded in 1942, CORE is the third oldest and one of the “Big Four” civil rights groups in the United States. Poviding “shock troops” and pioneering the civil rights movement, CORE paved the way for the nation to follow.
Under the banner of “TRUTH! LOGIC! & COURAGE!” CORE continues to promote harmony and healing in all aspects of society; calling the shots straight and confronting the haters, race baiters and racial racketeers bent on keeping us apart.
CORE’s National Headquarters are in New York City, and membership in CORE is open to anyone who believes that “all people are created equal” and is willing to work toward the ultimate goal of true equality throughout the world.
CORE’s aim is to bring about equality for all people – regardless of race, creed, sex, age, disability, sexual orientation, religion or ethnic background. In pursuing its aim, CORE seeks to identify and expose acts of discrimination in the public and private sectors of society. When such an act is uncovered, CORE and its many multi-service departments spring into action.
