I was telling an aquantance while shopping, that I planned on joining a sorority. She then did the AKA call and asked I was joining "THAT ONE". I was like um.. noooo!
I was at but was contemplating switching to another school and then someone asked me (because that is the only HBGLO for females at that school I was thinking of transfering to) if it was AKA. I was like no......
The point is-it's not that AKA isn't a GREAT organization, it's just that just because I'm black that doesn't mean I'm joining the only HBGLO you have probably ever heard of! LOL These people should get educated!
At my school the minorities are majorities. Most of the population is hispanic, the majority of the white, hispanic, etc. all go to the South campus where as Blacks are noticably concetrated at the North campus. I go to the South campus and only recently have the HBGLOs begun to present themselves at greek activities that I've attended. I've spent the majority of my time in school with HWGLOs (even though at my school they are majority Hispanic) (LOL!
) and I feel most comfortable with them. My boyfriend is a hispanic GLO and so are the majority of the greeks I know and why would anyone assume that I would travel half way across the county when I fit in where I already am. (Not to say I wouldn't enjoy any GLO) but when you are home, you kinda know it....
