Yo Think about it,
I can possibly understand where you are coming from. You may have been exposed to some members of BGLO's that acted in a manner that was not befitting of thier organization.
I am not mad at you, becuase I know you are wrong, and your feelings are born out of ignorance about the true meaning and purpose of BGLOs. You can respectfully disagree with me, but I and others know that you are wrong.
The first thing that you have to understand, is that every member of a frat or a sorority is a human first, and as humans, we all make mistakes. I am sure that you have made a few in your life, and we are no better or worse than you.
Now there are some things that I think that all of us would like to see changed, but I believe that you must first become the type of brother or sister that you want to see represented in your organization. I try by working with our youth. Young black men today really need the role models that my Frat provides for them, and the scholarship money that we give out has helped some of them stay in college and finish school. I would be more than happy to send a copy of the letters that I have recieved from young men who have been the recipients of our scholarship money to you.
That is what is all about. F$%k the stepping the shouting, the parties, all that is cool, but working in our communities is what it is all about. I would encourage you to find a Kappa (or other organization) chapter in your area, and see the work that they are doing. Ask them can you attend a Guide Right function and watch them work with kids. Hell help. What have you done for your community lately? It is easy to sit on your ass and throw a few stones, but a whole hell of a lot harder to help haul a bunch of them.
"HATING GETS YOU NOTHING" remember that.
Peace and Luv
