It's really sad that this is still an issue in today's world.
I agree it's sad, but realistically in the south it will be a problem for awhile longer. I'm ashamed to look back and know that my chapter would NEVER have pledged an African American member. It was the culture of the times, and I am shamed that I didn't find fault with it then.

As for not mentioning it, we have no idea what this woman looks like. Not all mixed race people can hide their ethnicity, nor do many of them want to.
