You aren't sure of the bolded so it is best to leave that alone.

You may get this question in real life from Sorors, so remember that a lot of people focus on the history and the DST-AKA thing to the point where that's most of their answer. History is important and that includes Black history, BGLO history, and the history of our Founding. But, we have accomplished so much nationally and locally (which you know through the chapters that have math and science youth programs ) since then, so your answer should focus on that as much as (if not more than) the Founding history. We already know the history and have heard it time and time again from aspirants. Good luck to you.

I admire Delta Sigma Theta because of the incredible body of work they have done for nearly a century. I have a deep and profound respect for the 22 founders of DST,because they took risks during a time when women collectively were struggling to be heard,and black women had to fight twice as hard. When I was reading In Search of Sisterhood,I was just so...proud of these brave young women to take such chances during volatile times for African Americans. I salute every single sister that paved the way so we can better ourselves for the future. Whether it is political,educational or liberal,the Deltas are courageous trailblazers in every way. It is their courage that has inspired me to one day be a Delta. I truly hope that the legacy they created will continue to flourish for future generations.
