I think a better way to phrase the question that started this entire thread, is "why is there a need to differentiate between W/B/L/AGLO's? Why aren't there JUST GLO's?"
Also, I think a good answer to end this discussion (even though i'm not saying it needs to end) would be, because if there was no such thing as a black/latino/a/asian community, there would be no need to work to uplift it. In other words, if society was truly integrated, so would GLO's be truly integrated. However, as long as people of different backgrounds continue to, for lack of a better word, segregate themselves, there will also be a need for fraternities meant to specifically help their communities.
I hope this message is clear to everyone. I didn't understand at first either, but after living a sheltered life for 18 years or so, i've realized that even where there is equal opportunity and rights for all people regardless of race, creed, sex, or age, people still tend to associate with those of the same race, creed, sex, or age group.
Feel free to make any additions or ammendments to my statements as you see fit
