But I have never heard of her being a Delta ...

One of my favorite professors at UNC-Charlotte, Dr. Sandra Govan and Octavia Butler were really close friends...Dr. Govan wrote one of my rec letters and teased me endlessly about her thinking I was a "GDI" like she is, so I would think she would have mentioned that her friend was a Delta...I'm going to send her an email and ask...will post the response as soon as I get it...

[Hijack]Someone just told me about this book Saturday. I was so interested from her giving me the background that I said I wanted to read it as soon as she finished it. That's kinda amazing! [/Hijack]

If memory serves me correctly, he is in fact, a man of Alpha Phi Alpha.

The one about Enjoying the Rewards from Heaven in 2007? I got it from my pastor. His theme for '07 is Tasting the Rewards from Heaven in 2007. You'd have to hear it in the context of his sermon to get that part, so I changed it to Enjoying the Rewards.

I'll go back to it after MLK and Founder's Day!

There's an Atlanta magazine/newspaper, Rolling Out, that focuses on entertainment in Atlanta. To be brief, there was a paragraph mentioning the founding of Delta Sigma Theta. The last sentence gave names of notable members including Angela Bassett. I hadn't heard that one before, but I wanted to come to my knowledgeable researchers to be sure.

I did some Internet research and barely found anything.

Thanks in advance!

I would love for her to be one but alas tis not true unless something changed in the recent weeks.

It would be cool to have her as a Greek Sister, but I just want a PRINT publication to be on top of their information. Don't just rattle off names that sound good. Just throwing a name in there without mentioning say Lena Horne, Dr. Betty Shabazz, or Barbara Jordan made that error even bigger to me.

Angela is one of my favorite actresses. I would love for her to be a Delta, too!
