Multi-cultural Paraphernalia in the NPHC

[TRSimon]

Hi SoRHOrs and Friends:

Since all of the NPHC organizations have non-AA members, do you think that our paraphernalia should reflect this diversity? Do you think it undermines the fact that these organizations were founded to advance the cause of African Americans?

Some people think that people of other cultures who join NPHC organizations should know what they are in for and what comes with the territory, meaning that they joined a predominantly AA organization. I think that if any Greek organization, NPHC or not, accepts people of different cultures, they must be prepared to be sensitive to the needs of the membership. I think sometimes that means having some available paraphernalia with different colored faces than/with AAs.

What do you think?
