She has the right to pursue the organizations of her choosing. She understands that she may be at a disadvantage and was seeking the advice of those who may have dealt with similar situations.
I had some of the same problems the OP discribes and chose to pursue what at most schools (not mine) is an extremely "historically white" sorority with people who were more similar to those I dealt with growing up, etc. If they choose not to accept you for who you are, at least you made an effort and know that it wasn't meant to be (regardless of the reason). You can choose your next step at that time. You can not change you race so do not focus on it, rather, focus on what helping others potentially realize that you may make an amazing sister.
