The reason minority Greeks were created in the first place was because of racist laws that we're taken out until the 1960's by most organizations and still provide the backdrop for our current setting.
What do NIC/NPC orgs do *specifically* to benefit the Black/Latino/Asian communities? I don't see the organizations as a whole maintaining a committment to communities of color.
Studies have bee done on this. The results show that ethnicity is something one can't really be open about in many (not all) NPC/NIC chapters.
Every organization was founded on certain values/beliefs. You're not going to see minority Greek organization membership go down until you see increased racial integration across NIC/NPC orgs as a whole (which is a LONG way off) and true equality for all people in this country. That's the reality.
If those guys want to start a chapter of whatever fraternity it is, let them. Minority Greeks focus on specific communities. If NPC/NIC organizations aren't helping those communities, then don't complain when people join those organizations.
