I have been a very active Zeta for nearly 19 years...and Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated is not affiliated with NALFO...nor are we officially or unofficially part of ANY group called the FIRM FAM.

Please stop using the term...

After reading FW's post, I had to come back and ask why does it suck that some Zeta Phi beta Sigmas do not say they are "bounded" to SLGB? There is no official bond same as with the Omegas and us. And there are Deltas who will not claim a relationship.

Remember for many of us old school, the reason for what "relationship" there is was not known until ISOS came out. It was instead a matter of personal preference mainly pushed by the Omegas. Shoot on some campuses the "relationship" was with the Kappas, because of the shared colors.

When you said "And there are Zetas and Sigma that will dispute this," because you quoted a post that was just about the Sigmas and Zetas (not the FIRM), it looked like you were saying that there are Zetas and Sigmas who will dispute their own bond with each other.

Anyway, when my mom first met one of my Omega mentors when I was 17, he called her Soror, and she smiled but was like "wtf is he talking about?"

Oops my bad!. I did misread Knowledge's post. That's what I get for practicing speed reading-ha!. No I don't know of any ZPBS's that dispute THEIR bond.

LOL at your Mom's reaction.

FIRM Fam...
 

Which of these orgs are you in?

I am not in any of these orgs. Like I said, I have friends in these organizations, and my personal interest in this matter stems from where I have grown up. As a sociology major focusing on ethnic relations I have a private interest in matters involving African Americans and Latinos. In the area I live, So. Cal, there is a lot of racial violence and I have lost TOO many friends in fights over skin color. I plan on getting myself involved with social activism to impact how these two groups relate to each other.
