I have to admit I actively disliked seeing the KKGs expressing themselves with this 'stepping' or 'strolling'. It was really poorly done ... I may have felt differently if they had rocked it ....? not sure. Maybe I'm old-school (okay, I am old-school!), but I prefer to see stepping maintained as a BGLO expression. There is sooooo much borrowing, and then coopting, of African-American expressions without acknowledgement or appreciation of the origins .. well, it can be hard to take. I'm sure the girls meant no harm, tho'.
That being said, I have a special place in my heart for KKG, because my room-mate was a KKG sister and she supported me MAJORLY when I 'pledged' .... Go Holly!
