Moorfield Storey
Moorfield Storey (March 19, 1845 – October 24, 1929) was an American lawyer, publicist, and civil rights leader. According to Storey's biographer, William B. Hixson, Jr., he had a worldview that embodied "pacifism, anti-imperialism, and racial egalitarianism fully as much as it did laissez-faire and moral tone in government." Storey served as the inaugural president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), a position he held from 1909 to 1929.
Early life
Storey's family was descended from the earliest Puritan settlers and had close connections with the abolitionist movement. He was born in Roxbury, Massachusetts, and arrived in Northeast Harbor after the Civil War, building a house there. He graduated at Harvard in 1866, and then studied at Harvard Law School. From 1867 to 1869, Storey was clerk for the United States Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, effectively private secretary to its chairman, Senator Charles Sumner. He accepted the position as it seemed the best route to continue his law studies. During his tenure, he initially supported the removal of President Andrew Johnson from office but soon became disenchanted by what he viewed as the corruption and opportunism of politicians on both sides. He was admitted to the bar in 1869.

By the end of his military career, he was the most decorated Marine in U.S. history, having received not one but TWO medals of honor. After his service in the Marines, he became an outspoken critic of U.S. wars and wrote a scathing book called “War is a Racket.” Oh, by the way, he also exposed an alleged fascist coup to remove President Franklin D Roosevelt from office and overthrow the U.S. government.
This is the story of Major General Smedley D. Butler!

Moorfield Storey
Moorfield Storey (March 19, 1845 – October 24, 1929) was an American lawyer, publicist, and civil rights leader. According to Storey's biographer, William B. Hixson, Jr., he had a worldview that embodied "pacifism, anti-imperialism, and racial egalitarianism fully as much as it did laissez-faire and moral tone in government." Storey served as the inaugural president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), a position he held from 1909 to 1929.
Early life
Storey's family was descended from the earliest Puritan settlers and had close connections with the abolitionist movement. He was born in Roxbury, Massachusetts, and arrived in Northeast Harbor after the Civil War, building a house there. He graduated at Harvard in 1866, and then studied at Harvard Law School. From 1867 to 1869, Storey was clerk for the United States Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, effectively private secretary to its chairman, Senator Charles Sumner. He accepted the position as it seemed the best route to continue his law studies. During his tenure, he initially supported the removal of President Andrew Johnson from office but soon became disenchanted by what he viewed as the corruption and opportunism of politicians on both sides. He was admitted to the bar in 1869.
