sistermadly, you are now my favorite poster on gc!!!!

i think, as with everything...there are always 2 sides. both sides have to meet half way in order for a change to happen. should the npc tie up black women, dress them in lilly's and force them to go through recruitment??? no. sometimes i wonder if the nphc doesn't have the right idea about recruitment (*note: i really don't know that much about the process, but from what i understand, there is a much different focus than npc rush).

This kind of bonding has to happen organically. And that starts when some "sister" at some university decides to sign up for NPC recruitment. Shake the haters and the detractors -- on both sides. Eff all those people who tell you that you're "selling out" by signing up. Even if at some point you decide that the NPC isn't for you - GO THROUGH IT ANYWAY. Don't stand on the outside, rolling your eyes and saying "they don't want me" - give them the chance to want you. And if the b*tches in that particular chapter decide to act a fool, then don't let that one incident of discrimination define the rest of your life. You are more than that - you are worth more than that - and trust - you will rise above it.
i think that this advice really applies to all women going through recruitment!!! don't spend the rest of your life feeling bad about not being an abc bc they are the ones who clearly are losing out!!!
