But another layer to this is the reaction of NPC alumnae members... "I've always been uncomfortable with this..." they say. Let's be honest - you're uncomfortable because it doesn't seem refined, and it doesn't seem refined because you know it's something black people do.
This is so true. I get very uncomfortable when I see hand signs I know are appropriated from NPHC organizations.
