Why have people stopped posting to this??
Ok..I feel I'm a little like Anna Easter Brown b/c I'm "solid, reliable, gentle & sweet". I'm a little like Sarah Meriweather b/c I'm pretty much always in a hurry. I'm a little like Lavinia Norman b/c if I had a dollar for every dream I've had, I'd be able to fulfill every single one of them. I'm a little like Carrie Snowden b/c I was very anxious to join AKA & b/c I have been touted by interests-turned-sorors as being "most gracious & lovely". I'm a little like Nellie Quander b/c I will agree to disagree with your ideals-but, it will take hell & high water for me to let anyone destroy & disband an ideal that I KNOW is right & should be preserved, namely, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.
Let me stop here b/c this will become too long...& I'll get emotional...but, I guess (in truth) I can find something in every one of them that I find also in myself.
That's the beauty of the whole thing. Some interests may see memorizing the founders & who they were as a torturous chore that AKA's demand be done just for the heck of it...but, sisterfriends, these were REAL people...REAL people that have shaped America. They did, indeed, and that's deep b/c if you try to imagine America without AKA, or any of the other BGLO's...I can't even imagine it..not even in my mind's eye.
So, sisterfriends learn the history b/c it is good & it is important...and, now you have no "excuse" for not being familiar with our illustrious founders...and, let's keep this thread going.

If you don't know what we say about "excuses", then you ain't ready...
