None of us are representatives for the D9 sororities that you're trying to work with. Go to them, as adults should know how to do, and figure it all out. If it doesn't work, oh well.

Good luck with your program. (end quote)


I'm sure there are no representatives from the specific NPC groups noted earlier as only asking for your participation with step related events. I just wanted to let you know that there are NPC groups who try to involve historically black sororities in events other than "stepping" - in this case, something which affects all women - and minority women are more likely to die from it, probably because of lack of awareness and/or proper preventative health care. I think that especially in areas that concern all women, regardless of color, we should try and work together. My admittedly very narrow experience is that there is not much of that going on - and my personal efforts to reach out have been rebuffed. No biggie - as you say, oh well - but I did want to present an alternative option to the idea that striving for greek unity has to invovle stepping at all.
