I mean, it really just looks like the person wanted to bash the hell out of black people (agreed, whoever wrote that is retarded, we were enslaved, how could we be a part of Greek society? and the freedom fighters didn't mess around with Greek life, they were too busy trying to get the African Americans their rights.)
I myself am an African American in one of the few fraternities that had no limitations in terms of race, color, creed, or sexual orientation. (Ain't nothin' like bein' a Teke.)
greek life has nothing to do with african american rights. we fought for those. we're still fighting for them.
don't try to take us back to u.s. history, because you will get schooled.

No, I am not smoking something.

I'm Black. But I'm not in a Black fraternity, nor am I in a fraternity that cares about race/religion/sexual orientation.
Did that register?

Eh, you should probably sit down somewhere and be quiet. This is your first warning.

Actually...

Of the national fraternities founded prior to 1920, TKE is one of the few fraternities that never had a discrimination clause in its membership requirements to prevent membership of men because of their race, color, or creed.
From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TKE). Not the best source, of course, but its pretty commonly known.
