No need to use the Nupes as example. BGLO members don't deny our primary focus and most of us aren't offended by acronyms/references such as HBCU, BGLO, MCGLO, PWI, HWGLO, etc.
It's some whites who are offended by acronyms/references like PWI and (H)WGLO.
It isn't just what we like and seeking like minded people, we generally are intentional in advancing the black community and being historically and predominantly black and African diasporic organizations. However, we are not limited to servicing the black community and seeking black and African diasporic people. Even still, many BGLO chapters do not gear their programs toward attracting a wider range of people. Thus, we end up being exclusionary anyway.
