I'm so over somebody attempting to correct my organizations long standing stepping history. You can pinch yourself and squash that dream in a instance. I've entertained discussion on that lower level countless times. Time to move on. My issue of discussion is far past that. Some of you have answered my question, others are still on cloud "we own that". Historically several NPHC groups have invited us in competition. And I knew some of you did not know that. So that's why I came with exhibition. Whether or not you believe a step show has to have NPHC group represented is very irrelevant. Not a this issue of this thread. Dang!

You wanted an honest answer to your stupid question and I told you how I truly felt!!! So now you are pissy because everybody knows you are a wannabe Historically, NPHC Black Greek??? Why does it hurt you so much that GC HBGLO's are telling you to stay outta of our lives? How can you assert your will on my Sorority? When is the last time you paid my dues? WTF, who the hell are you anyway?!?
And stepping traditions? Based on whose values systems? Where did you fathom your moves? Oh, you probably stole them from the Fraternities... I don't care if you were invited. The organizers probably were forced to invite you, gave you a consolation prize called 3rd place, or they felt sorry for your little group. Hate to break it down to you that way, but I have decided to stoop to your level of understanding...
You would really want to improve your reading comprehension skills because you have slandered my statements. You ignomy shows the lack of critical thinking skills required to hold an intelligent debate. In fact, you never wanted to debate this issue. All you want to do is step in big shows or have one, whatever. An Exhibition Step Show? Huh? WTF!!! You wannabe an exhibitionist and want HBGLO's to participate? And you wonder why some of us are pissed off about it???
If you are so crunchy old, why do you want to step so much with us? Hmmmmm, can your step with us without your walker? Why do you care? Isn't stepping just a college thing anyways? Yeah, some graduate CHAPTERS step--not
GRADUATE MEMBERS!!! (Just want to make sure you can focus through those trifocals you are wearing). But they are not in big shows like "Step Correct" or "Long Beach".
Yes, step shows are big business. It is unfortunate that "we" still have to "tap dance" to make money. And really $25K-$50K is not a lot of money compared to all these "Walk for whatevers" and "5/10K runs" clearing $500K or more in 1-2 mornings... But you had better believe, the minute some HBGLO tries setting up a "Sickle Cell Walk", we would come into all kind of city permitting issues... Some events have already been affected. The Kappa Beach Party in Texas... The Biloxi Beach Party. Just go to

Too many double and triple standards going on with the main perpetrators of hate or their bought and paid for negroes who bitch and moan about why some of us don't like gentrification. Can you say "SELL-OUT". And tell me, do you rollerblade in GC often???
