NAACP - Missouri Travel Warning

In the wake of Missouri State Senate Bill 43

"The NAACP issued its first statewide travel warning for Missouri.  Here's why" PBS NewsHour 8/3/2017

Excerpt

SUMMARY:  The NAACP issued a travel advisory about the state of Missouri for women, minorities and LGBT people, asking those travelers to use “extreme caution.”  The NAACP's first statewide alert comes after Missouri passed a law that the organization says permits legal discrimination.  President Rod Chapel Jr. of the Missouri NAACP joins Hari Sreenivasan to discuss how and why the advisory came about.
