Huh.

CT4,
she's wearing a screen-print shirt with the letters of the Sororities and pictures of famous members. Coretta Scott King, Shirley Chisolm, etc. It says "Women of Greatness."
the best way i can describe it is think patti labelle concert t-shirts. or those old "blacker the college" shirts. its like that.

Thanks for the description!
I'll echo lovelyivy with a "Huh."

I especially like the "pickin the teeth" shot in the collage.

Saw that on FGS...
I'm not that bothered by it. The concept of the shirt is nice, and it's not like she's wearing only 1 or 2 orgs' letters. I may be biased because I'm a huge fan, though.
The women on the shirt are all amazing role models... and I like that AW is giving them some exposure to people who might be unaware.
And she's holding a JB album... the girl knows history.

I'm with you. I'm a HUGE fan and so not offended by the shirt.
ETA: I am wondering though, does she really know what this all signifies, or is it just a picture? I wouldn't be surprised if she really did know though (family members are jazz musicians, growing up listening to hip-hop, etc.)

She's British and went to performing arts-type schools. I doubt she really understands the significance of the letters.
I am a huge fan too.

I dunno?  But it seems like the same folks that make the "National Champions" shirts are the same ones who screw around with Black Women and our NPHC Sororities...
