I just wanted to post here what I posted in another thread. Both BGLO's and GLO's were formed for different reason, beacuse of the race wars that have gone on for, in my opinion, too long. However, they have a common intrest, and that is to promote the community and to give us a means to do so. Both BGLO's and GLO's alike might have been formed for different reasons, but they share a common goal. I don't think you should join a BGLO because you are black or join a GLO because you are white, you should join them for what they stand for, not for what color they are based on. If you support research for breast cancer and that is important to you, join XYZ because that is their philanthropy, If you like Animal Rights, join TRQ because they help out at the local shelter. THAT is what they were formed FOR. Like I said, the REASON why they were formed might be different, but they still hold a common goal, and THAT is what is important. If you hold the ideals of a particular organization close to your heart, you should follow that path, not deny it because you are a different color than the rest of the members. It's just like saying that only Black men can be doctors, if some white boy has a dream to be a doctor, should he discard it because he's not black? NO! He should do what he is interested in. The same goes for greek organziations. Join what you are interested in. That's all I have to say about it.
