Now to your question: I understand what you (and Rhoyal and Mccoyred) are saying, however perhaps I am missing a key element that the three of you have been trying to express; so I will rephrase my question another way:
Why can't NPHC orgs cater to the Black, Latino, Asian, White, and other ethnic communities at the same time? Please explain this to me. It's almost like the time a friend of mine told me as a kid he was so afraid of flying he was afraid to turn on the mini-AC above his seat because he thought he was diverting power away from the engines. What, the plane couldn't stay airborne and cool him off at the same time?

I understand your point but I guess the easiest way to respond would be to say that people like to help the communities in which they live or grew up in, especially if that community is in dire need of assistance. The community in which I grew up in for example, is in great need so I am always thinking of the people there when it comes to planning service projects and volunteering my time. Now if there are Whites, Latinos, and others who are now living there also and they are around when we are serving others, we wouldn't even think about turning them away just because they're not Black.
