Diversity in the SEC

[sigmadiva]

To address Sen's question: I am assuming that Titchou is saying "diversity" = racial diversity.

To the question overall - please realize that there are non AA in NPHC orgs as well.

Joining a GLO of one's choice may not always be about race. It can also be about how a person chooses to align with a certain culture.

We assume that race = culture, but that is not necessarily true.

Another point is that not all persons in this country who have "black" skin are African Americans. There are many persons of African descent, such as Jamaicans, Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, and Colombians, who traditionally do not consider themselves as African Americans. And just about every African that I've met absolutely do not consider themselves as African Americans.

So, while you may see a Black female in a NPC pledge class, that Black female may not see her cultural identity in alignment with historical African American identity, i.e., NPHC sororities.
