Re-inventing the D9 sororities?

I think elements of that apply here. I agree w/ CT4, Ideal08 and others on what seems like "copying" to me, but whatever. Camaradarie, tenacity and impact are the D9 marks of success. We'll see about these new groups.

If these "pop-up" orgs last and do the work which honors their founding commitment/s, then great. That's one less community problem the rest of us have to tackle. If, as I suspect usually happens, they fall by the wayside relatively soon after formation, what truly has been lost except, perhaps the disillusionment of a few of their members?

For all of our shortcomings, the D9 has made qualitative differences in the lives of members and our community for 90+ plus years now, a fact no reasonable person can argue. That tradition, whether folks acknowledge it or not, is what leads them to form their own groups. Hey, if kicking it down at Krispy Kreme with their "founders" is tradition for them, I'm glad for 'em.

As for me, the time invested and the lives the D9 has helped to change on behalf of the Creator, is the real answer to this question.

peace.

TonyB06 always on point! LOL @ Krispy Kreme with the founders.
