A white person has to have that understanding. If they are willing to submit to serving mostly Blacks, (when using frat time/resources)...then fine...you can join. But don't come in my org trying to "whitewash" it and waste the little resources we have "spreading the love". It sounds prejudice (not racist) but thats REAL. That is my only concern w/white folks in the frat.

Truth: What would be the response if this topic came up in a board of a frat/soror that was mostly white? What if the organization had members that brought up the topic of sketching african-americans joining or being members already? They started saying they should be weary or they don't want them to come in and trying to "blackwash" the fraternity and use the resourced to help out "their people." Would that be considered racist? Would it be wrong, unethical, what?
I'm not trying to bring up a huge brawl, and i'm not pointing my fingers at anyone, just asking a few simple questions, hoping to get a few educated answers.

To all some history: I belong to a historically white fraternity, yet we do have eight african-american members, so I quess I don't quite understand some of the feelings i've read on here.
Further, about the wglos that mocked the omegas at a party, those were three organizations, they don't represent all wglos, and that should be know, to think otherwise would form stereotypes and prejudices, and I don't recall many people that talked about it as being "cute" because that shit ain't right at all and people that aren't ignorant know that.
