Since I have seen many women of great achievement cry during their ceremony, and deliver heartfelt speeches of what it means to them, I am glad we initiate honorary members. I will say though, that I do prefer it when the initiate is not a "celebrity", but rather a woman of great achievement in other fields other than entertainment that positively impact people's lives.
Both Sheryl Lee Ralph and Suzanne Douglas were invited, not because they are actors, but because of the personal work they have been doing for years for the disenfranchised.
