Ahh yes I thought if ever asked this question I wouldn't know what to say but in all honesty I was doing some research on the organization I was very impressed. For, one I look at delta sigma theta as being a very prestigious black letter organization. And when I see historical women like shirley chisholm (one of many) who impacted and made a difference and influenced not only black people but black women and women in general is definitely ok with me. Knowing that she was a respected member of this organization can only mean that this organization is worth being apart of to say the least.
It inspires me when I see black women who stress the importance of education, serving their communities, and being politically involved! I love the fact that I was able to read in Search of Sisterhood because this book allowed me to understand the importance of change and standing up for what you truly believe in. It is extremely difficult being black and being a woman so when I see how determined these women are to make a difference in our society that only encourages me more to want to be apart of such a illustrious sisterhood. I am not apart of a Greek lettered organization but I one day hope to be apart of an organization such as delta sigma theta. It is women like them who uphold and inspire young women such as myself to have the confidence and inspiration to seek change and know that anything is possible. I hope that one day I can become a member of this organization and exemplify why this organization was even established. Whether I pledge tomorrow or in 20 years my heart will always have a spot for DST.
