I'm a lifetime member of the distinguished Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, an organization that was created to change and benefit individuals rather than society. D.S.T. does not and will never ever refuse anyone of their race. We have well over 200,000 members from U.S.A, Japan, Africa all over the world, now I can only speak on behalf of my dynamic organization. But please don't judge all historically black sororities and fraternities because of one person who made an ignorant comment. My organization was founded at a time when education was seen impractical for blacks. Blacks were stereotyped as "ignorant" and beneath the white race and still we continue to climb the ladder of success breaking barriers of all kinds no matter how difficult the obstacle may be. Unfortunatly we're still climbing the ladder of INJUSTICE.

There was something similar that happened here with PHC. This girl got turned down by every sorority on campus and said it was racial. Then when the media started to get involved an older sister who was black said it wasn't and nothing happened after that. But I do have a question. How come black fraternities and sororities refuse white people from joining their organizations? I asked some friends of mine who are Kappa's and said white people wouldn't understand. Why?
