Can someone point out any racial discrimination listed in this article? After reading the article, it seems to me that this young woman was doing a poor job leading the chapter. It seems that there was a lack of communication from all parties involved, which if resolved, might have helped the situation. I found it significant that Iqbal requested ( demanded?) that the chapter respect her, as it shows her poor people skills. Respect is earned-you can’t demand it or ask for it. The note she wrote to the chapter came across as aggressive. Sororities have terminated memberships for many, many years,
most often for a rules violation. I imagine that asking a fellow officer to violate international policy concerning alcohol is what caused her membership termination, not her race-after all, she was offered a bid and ultimately was elected president. You can be aggressive, psychotic, and a bitch no matter your race, creed, religion, ethnicity, etc. If she couldn’t work with the executive council or the general membership, maybe the problem is her as a person, not her as a person of color.
