Ahh....Neicy we meet again.
For starters, I think what these fraternity brothers did was wrong. They deserve whatever punishment they get... but those individuals, not the entire chapter.
At first I didn't see a problem if the BGLO brothers gave them the shirt, but then I saw that they didn't. Two years ago for Halloween, one of the brothers dressed up as another brother, who is Indian, dark, and with long hair (which was damn sexy and a lot better kept up than most girls!). That brother who was "ridiculed" thought it was hilarious. The white brother even colored in his face. I guess it just depends on what kind of sense of humor people have.

Neicy,
Please take a look at the following table that appeared in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on May 9, 2001 of America’s most segregated cities generated from the 2000 census: http://www.jsonline.com/news/metro/may01/SEG09G2.asp
Notice that the three most segregated cities according to this study (rankings will certainly vary by study) are Detroit, Milwaukee and New York City. The first Southern city comes in at #10, Miami. Surprised? I sure was, and yes, medium sized Southern cities were included in the rankings. What does that prove? To you, probably nothing. But I see it as an indication that racism, prejudice and stereotyping knows no geographic boundaries, thanks for giving us a demonstration from the wonderful city of Chicago, one of my favorite cities for sports and museums...and number 6 on the above list.

I live in Detroit, always have. The only way I've ever seen it segregated is that the not so nicer areas are mostly minorities, and the other areas are mostly whites, with few minorities. Like it or not, that's the way it is. Whites in Detroit don't choose to be segregated, it's just that if they have money then why live in the projects? Same goes for anyone of any color.
As far as black girls going through Rush, we've had African American girls go through Rush. One a few years ago, who was very nice, shy, but would have made an awesome sister. She disappeared from the rest of the week. Why? Cuz the black sorority taunted her and gave her dirty looks for rushing an NPC sorority. Blah. We accept all nationalities, all colors, all religions, etc. I'm sorry if your own kind doesn't like that fact.
Neicy, and everyone can quote me or do whatever you want, but I still think you are the most racist piece of shhh that I've ever "encountered". Oh wait, I forgot, blacks CANNOT be racist... isn't that what you said once before? If all minorities were like you and thought like you, then I wouldn't blame people for being racist. I understand that your people have been oppressed and "history repeats itself", but why don't you try bettering YOUR life without blaming every little flippin bad thing in OTHERS' lives on the history of blacks vs. whites? There are so many blacks who make something of themselves because they put their mind to it and told themselves that just because there are many whites out there who are biggots (spelling?), they will not let anything get in the way of their success. If only everyone in the world thought that way, then maybe we could all get along! Stop blaming others for your problems!
