I didn't know you were a non-latina until after I typed that. I was going based on your posts.

I believe you are taking that out of context. My sorority fights for the rights and advancements of all women in many instances because we are an intersection of black and women when it comes to many experiences and issues. That by no means reduces the black in "black college educated women who have committed ourselves to public service."
More than that, the quote continues to reference how "Latina" encompasses various races, cultures, and hues. It references that before and after the "all women." So "all women" seems to be within that context and they see "all women" as paying respect to the diversity of "Latina."

I believe Ch2ft was asking you whether you all primarily target the needs of Latinos, non-Latino minorities, or all women.
But, yes, Latinos are minorities. Technically and otherwise.
