I am sorry, but the way an individual member behaves does reflect on the entire organization. And for the D9, we are judged accordingly. Just ask any of the D9 members who have colors that resemble notorious gangs and when they are stopped because of DWB... If I have not heard or seen it a dozen times after the Long Beach Step Show...

And to be blunt about it: you said "today's society". What does this mean from my perspective? Because, I think "today's society" is just as EFFed up compared to past societies, like my Sorority sister Mom's who got water cannoned for equality or my Dad's who is an Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. member who was arrested and jailed for protesting at a lunch counter...

Today's society is not that much better and whoever says that chit can go EFF themselves. I don't give a crippa crap.
First, the conduct of its individual members reflects on every Greek organization (sometimes all Greek orgs if you’re talking about barbarians' perspectives). That's how it is for all of us, IFC, NPC or NPHC

Second, how on earth is she supposed to know your perspective? I mean honestly. I’ve had long conversations with members of The Movement, one of whom was even a former chairman of SNCC. And after listening to them, I don’t know how you can say things aren’t better. “Today’s Society” may not be perfect, but the generation that was water cannoned and jailed just because they wanted equality made great strides forward. Further, to say “today’s society isn’t much better” is foolish and discounts all that was achieved in the Sixties and Seventies. But I digress, as was previously stated, this is the subject of another conversation.
