Living Legend, you need to chill. It will be alright.

Talaxe,
Your obviously are not in an NPHC frat, and therefore don't know what the f*ck you're talking about. Anyway, for the record I am a Sigma, therefore I took offense to your "carrying canes is a bit cheesy" line. And no, not all NPHC organizations step with canes. Secondly, I believe any member of Alpha Phi Alpha would take offense to them calling themselves "Alphamen" just as I would take offense to some upstart group calling themselves "Sigmamen". But there is no point of continuing this argument because some things you have to be a part of to truly understand.

Let me clarify before you lose anymore of your ruffled feathers.
- Why are you offended by the carrying canes comment? Do you carry a cane around campus on your backpack? Maybe that's something that Sigmas at your school/town/area/region do. Whatever.
- All of the NPHC organizations step with canes on my campus. CANES, not sticks. In fact they started this when the Kappas' suspension was lifted.
- I have no desire to join a frat, for obvious reasons.
- As for the title "Alphaman" -- a bit uncreative on their part-- would this still be a huge issue if it were a non-black fraternity, carrying canes, with maroon and grey colors? No, I am not trying to simplify/put down the image that Alpha Phi Alpha men are working to portray.
