Hello,
I felt compelled to respond since I am a serious interest of YOUR organization, and have been for quite some time.
First off, yes there is a lack of humility on GC and other forums that I read. However, this is not particuliar to BGLO's I think it is wholly a cultural thing. In the past decade or so there has been an erosion of respect for authority (which would be the members of your organization) as witnessed by television and current events. I say this to say that young people in this generation do not respect the traditions of days gone by. This behavior is not specific to those persuing BGLO's but on a societal level.
So to answer the question, yes we want assistance, but humbling oneself is VERY difficult. Especially for someone like myself who is known for being a firecracker.
However, I have learned when addressing members of Alpha Kappa Alpha I always exercise caution when chosing my words and questions. But I too had to learn this the hard way, through experience and hitting a few brick walls.
