And if a Black soror wanted to serve a non-Black community, there would be no problem. You can serve many without taking the focus off of the Black community. Overall it is important that we stay true to our founders' visions. For example, Sigma Gamma Rho's founders felt very strongly about educating Black youth and empowering Black communities through education because there was a need...and this need still exists.
I feel you wholeheartedly on staying true to our founders' visions. I just feel that our founders' visions doesn't necessitate a requirement to be [mutually] exclusive in the process. Trust, there will be plenty of brothers and sisters in Black Greekdom who will insure that the Black communities' needs will be addressed, leaving an abundance of opportunity for other communities to witness firsthand what we are really all about besides a means of entertainment.
