And about the money thing: If you have some bruhs who are in some major leadership positions: political (Rep. Clyburn), education (Dr. Sellers) and financial/business, they can easily come up with the money. Even though some of the WGLOs do want to look at the money, most of the time they think of fellowship and a gathering place for their members when they build/lease houses, not as a long-term investment.
Ditto.

You misquoted me. I didn't say it was not about diversity--you left out "simply." The point I was making was that it was also about the "green". If the "leadership" is not behind the venture and willing to put up some means these types of things won't happen. And you are correct in that well respected Brothers in the financial sector in SC, esp. Tony Grant, was very influential in making this venture happen.
