Glad she's writing about her experience. I've met several non-AfAm sorors, sistergreeks and fraters who are great people and asshats. Being on the west coast I'm used to seeing all kinds of people in all greek orgs. I'm a big believer in go where you feel comfortable/where your heart is. The last large stepshow (Long Beach) I attended, to me, felt like a mini united nations. Sadly though, people still make stupid comments and I can't begin to express my disappointment that these folks can't see beyond race/color. You expect comments to come from outsiders but the worst is when it comes from within their own org. I've seen and heard it all.
I do wish her the best and hope she stays active for life. One of my favorite sorors is Native American and a life member. One of my other faves is Mexican American and one of the most active in her grad chapter. Race means nothing when it comes down to getting the job done.
