I'm kinda divided on the subject. My answer kinda depends on the reasons why THEY would want to join a BGLO.
There are those that have grown up in black neighborhoods, have black friends, and/or have proven through past community service that they are down to help our cause. In this scenario, I can totally accept a non-black soror and understand why she would want to join a BGLO (Just as there are blacks that feel more comfortable in predominately white organizations because that's the environment they've grown up in, I can respect that).
But there are those that (in my opinion) have come out of nowhere! As a sisterhood and business that's centered around uplifting the African American race, I honestly question (to myself of course!) the motives of those whose lives dont encompass ANYTHING from the black culture.
Do I feel they should join? That's a question I cant answer with a yes or a no, cause I am borderline on the subject.
But I would like to say that I give much respect to any and ALL sorors that put in WORK for Sigma--black, white, or otherwise.
I have another question related to this.......check out my next topic.......
