Are they really a member?

I always thought Moesha's dad was an Omega man. I don't know if anyone remembers, but in the episode where Moesha gets a tatoo on her stomache, Frank was mad. Dee explained to him that she was expressing herself just like when he got BRANDED for his fraternity. I'm thinking Omegas are the only ones that get branded, but I could be wrong. Can anyone clear that up? Also, they could have meant "Frank" the character or the man who plays Frank.

ANYONE CAN GET A BRAND!

Brandy Norwood's father is an Omega and her mother is a Soror.

Frank was a "member" of an organization. (Now, the guy who portrays FRANK, I don't know if her is greek or NOT. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE, we must DISTINGUISH THE DIFFERENCES.) I am sure it is a ficticious org. Cause the dude that Brandy was messing around with how was in college while she was still in high school was Frank's "fraternity brother".

When we watch these shows, we have to remember that on TV they (orgs) are like the characters FAKE, FICTIONAL!

IN sister sister, NY undercover,etc. I WOULD BET my butt that those members of KAPPA, AKA, etc ARE members of the orgs. represented. If I am not mistaken, Robbi Reed-Humes is a soror and she has been a casting director in the biz for YEARS and casts many of these "black" shows. I don't think that she would let just any ole body wear letters of REAL orgs, especially HER OWN. I can't see that AT ALL.

Why can't these people who wore those letters on Different World, etc. actually be "extras" from nearby universities?

Then, just because a "character" references something doesn't make it true. For instance, on "Martin". Gina painted the bedroom pink and green when she was fired from a job. Martin questioned why she did it. She said they were her "sorority colors". OKAY, Gina is a fictional CHARACTER WHO IS NOT AN AKA, ALSO, TISHA CAMPBELL-MARTIN, is NOT A SOROR!

I said ALL that to say, don't believe the hype, especially if it comes from TV!

I APOLOGIZE FOR THE LENGTH!
