Yes, I do honestly think that if some non-AA people were to come and offer to participate in something benefiting a black community that a BGLO would turn them away. Want to know where I got this idea? Then read the posts previous to mine in this thread.
You've got MEMBERS OF BLACK GLOS stating for the record that they DO NOT want white people to be involved in their organizations which means, that NO, they don't want white people to be in a position to help out black communities. I suppose if the whites got out there and offered help on their own, then that's okay. But apparently for some of the black GLO members on GC, the whites can help out as long as they don't try to get "too" involved in the black culture (read: join a HBGLO). That sounds pretty racist to me. Kind of like telling a black parent at a predominantly white school that we'd love her help in manning a booth at the school fair, but we don't need her to join the PTA.

You post tells me that you have probably never attended an event sponsored by a BGLO.
