BGLOs created the blueprint for a new TYPE of fraternity all together. Alpha was born as a study club and evolved into a fraternity which performed public programs, community service, and dedicated itself to social justice internally and externally.

"White" fraternities were not doing this. And that's fine. But again, doesn't mean that my founders were snubbed and did their own thing. It means that something different was necessary, so something different was created -- not something new was created because they were excluded.

I'm not trying to be argumentative, but there really is a difference.

PREACH!!!!
