That's right and many of them (the fraternities more so than the sororities) will tell you that those were their crazy days and many didn't intend for it to be anything more. As for us, because of our African heritage and African American history we feel like we HAVE to do the work we do and we HAVE to keep the sister/brotherhood alive to enhance our lives in a country and world that we all know can be (and has been) less than kind to Black people (all over the world).
