There is nothing wrong in admitting that.
While I'm not sure where the "nonsense" comment came from, I just don't think it's as rooted in race as you want to make it seem.

It has much more to do with membership selection and policies. While I hope my daughter dreams of being an ASA one day, if she goes to a school without ASA, or doesn't like that particular chapter, I'd encourage her to pick a different group, and certainly would not tell her that she should wait and try to join as an alumna later. NPHC aspirants are encouraged to research and pick their org based on a national level - NPC is, for the most part, chapter focused. Yes, there are places where there would be much pearl clutching if a legacy doesn't join her legacy chapter, they are fewer and far between.
