Ha! So it is a group that boasts itself to promote diversity and bettering lives. In that case, those are the times when you do need to jump up and down, scream, write letters, and make some waves. If you feel in your heart that their ethics are wrong and contradictory, I think you should do your best to find out who is behind the scenes of the organization and bring this matter to their attention. Are there board members? Or is there a local advocacy center near you?

By the way, I'm glad to hear that your children are proud of themselves and their heritage! Maybe is now the time to teach them to learn to stand proud and "fight" for their rights. I'm not at all saying they need to be spokespersons for their racial group, but if you are in an area where they are the "minority" they will face more racial issues and will need to learn how to cope and battle with it.
