My brotherhood is a collegiate based organization founded at Morgan State University on Oct. 12, 1962.
Our goals are the unpliftment of the black man, the black families and the black community.
We have aproximatley 35-40,000 members and over 150 affiliate graduate adn undergraduate chapters from Boston to Los Angeles.
We don't call ourselves a fraternity because the origin of the word fraternal brotherhood meant they had sex with eachother but we call ourselves a social fellowship, because fellowship is the christain name from brotherhood and we call it a social fellowship because we share our brotherhood with everyone.
Finally my organization is not a greek lettered brotherhood cause greek letters were stolen from African People.
Our Phi is Khametic which symbolizes "The fire of Life" or the creative function of the male sperm. We take that to symbolize our abilities to grow as men and brothers.
The word Groove has two meanings. You can be in the Groove and handle your business and you can be in the Groove and have fun.
We believe that if you are having fun and taking care of business at all times then have that ability to grow as a man and as a brother you have what it takes to be a complete man.
