LOL. Two points:
1. I guess people think that having members of BGLOs on the movie team and being married to other BGLO members means something. Yeah it gives the film more credibility than if it was done by a Hollywood studio with no background on BGLOs. However the larger point is that there are hundreds of thousands of members of BGLOs and many of them use their BGLO for some personal and professional gain. But having permission to use trademarks or present yourself as some type of representative or spokesperson is a different story.
2. My how the tables turn. I remember when people (some of whom are Alphas and AKAs) were acting like the Deltas had lost their marbles when President Rice's letter went out about the Black Sorority Project. Now the Alphas' and AKAs' national bodies are speaking out against Stomp the Yard and it's good that they are. Once again, this brings home the point that our organizations are bigger than the individuals who comprise them.
