I said it before and I'll say it again. I'm glad that someone with such screwed up thinking DID NOT become a member of my Sorority.
D9 Sororities are ALWAYS working within the community with young woman and girls to ensure that they are molded and have a better understanding of their own self-worth. However, we cannot undo all the nonsese that may be ingrained in a person's mind after YEARS of denying their own heritage. I don't know anyone's personal circumstances, nor do I care to. But just like you take offense to my comments, I take offense to hers. To make statements like "I'm not 'Black' enough to be a member of the XYZ Sorority" is ridiculous. You see no one with all these wild accusations has been back to explain what they mean. How can a white chick be "Black enough" to join a D9 Sorority, but a chick that is HALF Black isn't?
That goes to show that she has no clue about her Black heritage, nor has she taken the time to find out.
I would much rather someone just say they didn't find the right "fit" when it came to NPHC or NPC Sororities instead of saying they aren't "Black" or "White"
enough to make it in. You can choose not to be offended, but I am.
