I think their excuse of having 2 Afr. Am females that joined NPC is really lame. I always said, if you know how many Afr. Am you have had in your home and can count them on one hand you might have a racial problem. That is just a southern thing. Don't anyone take this the wrong way, but I attend a deep south school and I KNOW what the REAL deal is. We have only had 1 Afr. Am female in the history of my school's NPC. I really wanted to be in a sorority and I knew I would not make it into or be welcomed into a NPC white sorority, so I went out on a BIG limb and brought a multicultural sorority to our campus. Yes, the south is changing, but very slowly and a lot of people's home ideas will not change, (Smile in your face, but never have any contact except hello and goodbye). It really disappoints me that this makes CNN because this is everyday life. It is sad that racism still exists, but we don't see Indians, Chinese, or Japanese on TV everytime they make a new accomplishment.
