Cultures collided at the downtown Crowne Plaza that was hosting the Daddyland circuit party and a sorority convention, leaving one group on the street.
The world’s oldest and strongest international community of women of the African diaspora are the black sororities. Developed at a time when African Americans were barred entry into America’s hallowed halls of higher education, both black fraternities and sororities promoted excellence in scholarship and leadership in service. Black sororities arose at a time when traditional roles of women were being challenged, and stereotypes of African Americans were the iconography of the American landscape. There are four major sororities, all of which were established in the early 20th Century, including Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority (Howard University, 1908), Delta Sigma Theta Sorority (Howard University, 1913), Zeta Phi Beta (Howard University, 1920), and Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority ( Butler University, 1922).
