NAACP Leadership Transition: Twyman Succeeds Rutherford
George Rutherford, a significant figure in local civil rights activism, stepped down as president of the NAACP's Jefferson County Chapter after 50 years of dedicated service. His successor, Donaldson Twyman, 70, emphasized Rutherford's irreplaceable impact on the community, highlighting the profound values he instilled during his tenure. Twyman's leadership marks a new chapter for the chapter as it continues to serve the residents of Charles Town, Harpers Ferry, and surrounding areas, building on the foundation laid by Rutherford, according to The Spirit of Jefferson.
