I think the golden age of Alpha Phi Alpha was the 1950s. We were approaching our golden anniversary, collegiate chapters were large, and the alumni base was large and robust enough to provide adequate fraternal and community leadership. We were also preparing our members for greater action in the civil rights movement.
We looked good. We weren't distracted by things like step shows and the type of brutality we see today in the underground pledge process.
We weren't perfect, but I don't think we've ever been so good as we were fifty years ago.
