That was absolutely well said.
I whole-heartedly agree

You mentioned that if you were in a historically black greek letter organization, you would never vote for a "white" person......I am curious to know how you would feel if you had a line sister that was "white"? You have no choice in who your line sisters are. Secondly, you say that you know how the members on your campus feel because you have talked with all of them...but remeember a chapter is simply that, a chapter, it is not the entire sorority. Let me tell you that if you do join an NPHC sorority, NO MATTER WHICH ONE, you WILL have "white" Sorors. On that note I would seriously reconsider wanting to join one because how could you join an organization with which you disagree with their policies and don't like some of their current members? Finally, the democratic process is how things are run in most sororities, so just because you vote "no" doesn't mean that everyone else will......as it seems on this discussion, your opinion on this matter is not the majority......I did notice that one of your supporters is CrimsonAmbitions...I will assume that you are interested in my sorority, in that case I would rethink my decision because Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. does not decide upon its members by the color of their skin.....please read up on your history, in particular the contributions of Soror Mary Church Terrell. Finally, I will tell you that no I am not white and no I am not black. My chapter recently had its 25th anniversary and I met many of my Sorors including founders....let me tell you that my line made history in my chapter, it was the first time we crossed someone that was not black. And let me tell you, it is definately a history that we are proud of...look forward to your replies
