Rare fraternity live recruitment

So there's a little back story to my recruitment. I go to a sec school and personally I was not interested in greek life at the beginning of the semester. However my father is really big on it. President of alumni in the area, goes to events and retreats etc. Plus I'm from Jackson ms, so going greek is a must if you're from there. At the beginning of fall semester I pretty much already knew which fraternity i was going to be in. Talked to them all summer, went ot a couple of their parties they already felt like brothers before school started. So i go through recruitment, I go to this house exclusively, i also bring my best friend who wasn't big on greek life but came out anyway. So to make a long story short bid day came around. I of course recieve a bid but my best friend doesn't. Literally right before i sign my bid, i casusally ask them why my friend didnt recieve one. One of the guys simply told me because he's arab and some of the alumni wouldn't like it, but he was a pretty cool guy. I was beyond furious. I end up getting into a big arguement with some of the brothers for this blatent racism. I call my dad, he and some other inluential alumini come to the house to discuss the matters. After about an hour and a half of talking to me they still won't change their minds because "thats just how things are, around here". My own father agreed with them. So i didn't sign my bid and was simply disgusted by the thought of greek life.... But throughout the semester I was actively recruited by 3 to 4 fraternities who all seem pretty cool. So i decided to give it one more shot. Also my dad offered to buy me a new car, if i gave his another chance, so of course i can't pass that up.... Side note after reading stories on here in my opinion fraternity recruitment is harder because your arent shuffled around to every house, you actually have to go out of your way and meet the guys. Anyway wish me luck here are my top 5 so far without going through recruitment, maybe more will be adeded later we will see.

Red (Dad's fraternity)
Blue (Uncles's fraternity)
Green
Orange (My favorite so far, actively recruited me)
Black
