You're talking about the CORE - the Congress of Racial Equality

Explanation:

CORE is an African American civil rights organization in the United States that has played a key role for African Americans in the Civil Rights Movement. Their motto is "to bring about equality for all people regardless of race, creed, sex, age, disability, sexual orientation, religion or ethnic background." This organization promotes two major movements that played a pivotal role in civil rights - the Freedom Rides and the Freedom Summer, each one attempting to bring equal civil rights and the free vote for colored people.
