I'm not a member of a BGLO, but from what I understand, and my information might be off, but, BGLO's aren't just for African Americans. Recruitment is open to anyone of any race. The reson why they are considered BGLO's is because their organizations differ a bit (recruitement, government, ideals, purpose) from GLO's. They are traditionally black, and when they were governed under IFC and Panhell, they were not recieving the funding or support that GLO's were recieving, so they broke away and created their own governing body. Rightly so in my opinion. Because the were TRADITIONALLY black, they were then named BGLO's to signify the difference in organizations, not just because of color, but because of government. If any of my information is wrong, someone let me know, but this is how I understood it.
