In my opinion. . .
Well, since I'm black and grew up with stepping since high school. . .I don't see anything wrong with it.
HOWEVER, you'd better be able to hold your own against the BGLOs. It's different if you work your butt off to make it different and new but don't go out there half-hearted with it. That's where a lot of other non black GLOs mess up. If you're going to step, step.
Another way to make the transition eaiser. . .ask one of the girls or boys from the black GLOs to come and teach you a step or two. It doesn't matter if you've been stepping for years. . .it makes it easier for them to accept that you're going to step.
At Valdosta State, the NPC sororities had a step show during Greek Week. . .and they had the panel of black GLOs judge it. It gave the whites(all of the NPC sororities there were all white) a chance to interact with blacks on their level. They had black fraternity members teaching them steps.
This is just my opinion because it can start some mess. . .and ALL GREEKS should strive for harmony. Plus, it would be a big favor for the prospective black girls who aren't sure if all NPC sororities will accept them.
