We didn't separate ourselves and form Black Organizations because we wanted to be divisive or we thought it was cool, NO we did it out of a need that was not being met in the mainstream where we were not allowed to participate. I'm glad today Blacks can join most organizations if they choose to, it is politically incorrect to discriminate, but that does not lessen the need or the historical significance of black organizations in this country. Just because blacks are more accepted today does not mean we need to abandon the very institutions that brought us through all that horrific drama.
