^^^Overall, I liked the interview. Madame President gave a wonderful interview. And I really developed a distaste for the host, he seemed absolutely clueless about the D9 and attempted to instigate an unnecessary rivalry. Of course Madame President tried very hard to avoid temptation and was resplendent.

Yes, he did seem clueless, and he also seemed not to be listening to the responses that Soror McKinzie gave to his questions. But she was good.

He's (Glenn Boyd) not too clueless. Greeklife was at his alma mater. His wife is a member of DST. Maybe he asked questions the producers gave him. I haven't watched the clip.

Excerpts from IP BAM Communication: Jena Six

"Alpha Kappa Alpha is very concerned about the miscarriage of justice being carried out in Jena , Louisiana against six African American males. We agree that the events that culminated in the arrest of these young men appear to be racist-inspired. In this day and age, this is unacceptable. One of the young men -- Marcus Jones -- has already been convicted by an all-white jury of two felonies and faces a lengthy jail sentence. The others are awaiting their day in the court and the outlook for a fair trial is unlikely. This represents a gloomy future for these young men, who range in age from 15-18.
< BR>One of our platforms is The Black Male initiative. Speaking out against their arrest parallels the objectives of this thrust......


Sorors, I'm sure you've read the rest.

I read it this morning... I was so glad to see our president's statement on this terrible issue. My love for this organization grows deeper every day.

Soror Barbara McKinzie will be appearing live as a guest on the show "Greatness By Design" that airs on XM Radio, Channel 155. The host of the show is Blanche Williams. This is the same station that airs Oprah's radio show so it's highly popular.

The program airs on Sunday, December 9 from 5:30 - 6PM EST and 4:30 Central time. Please check your local listing if you are on the west coast.

Soror Barbara will talk about the upcoming Centennial and reflect on AKA's 100 years of progress.
