Can i join a black frat?

Well let me start out with some background info about me, Im Puerto Rican and Dominican I'm from the Bronx N.Y. Where I grew up was right in the middle of two cultures on one block was the strong Latin infused sounds and on the next block was the strong influence of hiphop. I chose hiphop, I love the music, the culture, all of it, but I am very proud of my Latin roots. I see hiphop as my home and my Latin roots as my view of life. I always wanted to pledge a frat but never really knew the story or how exactly it worked. When I was younger; my cousin's fiancé would take me to step shows and that was when I would think to myself "when I got to college I want to join a brotherhood like that." I currently go to a community college, but next year: because of scholarship opportunities, I plan on going to a historically black school. My girlfriend goes to one now, and when I went to visit I was there for a probate. Once again I thought to myself "I cant wait until the next year to join a frat." My girlfriend asked me can I join if im not black. I never really thought about it until now. I don’t know what to do, I mean I feel like I can relate to any one, and I see past color, so the thought of me not being black as an issue never came across my mind.

So basically can I? If so do you think I would be turning my back on my Latino roots?
Can someone please give me some feed back? & Thanks!
