Wow. Do some folks heerah need to read their histories!!!

Well, as a member of the first African American Sorority to celebrate her Centennial where there will be a huge display in DC, there should be very few questions about my Sorority after this shindig. I know, we will be paying for it for YEARS to come!!!

Yes, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. is focused on community service in the African American community--generally entrepreneurship, economics and business. Yes, we have numerous women of various cultural groups, the most famous is first lady, Eleanor Roosevelt.

If we cared about a way a person looks compared to the service they do then we would not have done our historical programs, Mississippi Health Project, Cleveland Job Corps and partnerships with Pillsbury, Daimler/Chrysler, Tyson Foods, L'oreal and numerous other organizations.

My question: Why must ANY NPHC Sorority continually be forced to prove these connections to people? It is what we do. The problems of the African American community are not solved by ignorance. And don't start me quoting stats because they are staggering.

Now join a different organization, I wish the best of luck for you. But, if you roll up in a jacket with a "line name" and "number" with letters folks are clueless about, you will get clowned in your locale.

Personally, I don't care--but, "I'd rather see a sermon that to hear one anyday..."
