Was it because we didn't like the fraternity or sorority asking us? Of course not. You can't always work everything out and do everything with everybody. No matter your letters or council, a group's primary obligation is to their own members and their own mission, however those things may be defined. Individuals can be (and are) friends on their own time across organization lines and council lines.
When BG's fraternity invited Alpha and Kappa to have parties, Alpha and Kappa were under no obligation to do so nor were they under any obligation to explain why they couldn't or wouldn't. Just in the same way if my KKG chapter turned down an invitation from ABC or XYZ fraternity when I was in college. Unless the Alphas and Kappas came straight out and said "we're not hanging with you crackers," I wouldn't have assumed it was a race thing.

ETA: I chuckled at your Edit. Kappa, Kappa, Kappa ... but don't assume it's a race thing lol
