Phi Skee
I had opportunity to meet Sister White last year in DC. My chapter brother asked her about the appropriateness of calling AKAs sorors. Sister White stated it was protocol but only men of Alpha Phi Alpha should call the women of Alpha Kappa Alpha sorors.
In NC Alphas and AKAs refer to each other as frat and soror. Unless I'm very close to an AKA, in public I often say this my sister. However, if someone asks me if I know xyz I do say she is my soror. Ultimately, I guess it is a regional thing. In fact, during my travels many sisters through up the pinkie and if I'm not focusing I will only smile and say hello which is most of the time. However, I will display the alpha sign when I'm relaxed.
