[teacup]

I do understand that the color of my skin should not matter, it's my heart and desire (and hands to work) that does. I just have not met any caucasian AKA's, hence - my apprehension.

I am in the process of contacting members in my area, as well as others that I know that are involved in AKA for advice and assistance in this process. Thank you for your replies and validation. I hope to one day be welcomed into your storied sisterhood!
