I would be impressed by this gathering if I knew that they would be discussing some of our current issues. With the "privacy" factor, I'm sure that's not going to happen. It looks good though.

And the point of this was?
I don't watch TV (and most ESPECIALLY not BET), so I wouldn't have seen it anyway, but why were they even doing this? Like, don't we ALL have bigger fish to fry right now?
*rolls eyes*

Thanks for the link Pep. Interesting that my President and AKA's Grand Basileus were the only ones that sent other executive board members rather than attending. Not quite sure what the goal was but it was nice to see everyone repping their colors in such an elegant fashion.
I agree, Sheryl handled the Mo sign moment well. Would love to know what happened during the break.

I peeped this last week. I thought Sheryl represented herself and Org well on that platform. I also peeped Monique pushing her to come out of her Presidential shell so to speak and bring out more of her comedian side...She stayed focused though.
Decent segment and it seemed like a nice gathering for the cause though...

Would love to know what happened during the break. On Monday, February 15th, we had AKA Day at the Georgia Capitol. Here, our South Atlantic Regional Director made the announcement that she would be filling for our National President because she had been snowed in Washington D.C. They taped the episode on that Thursday! I was surprised of the quick turn around, because Soror Springs did not know the air date.

Ok, I am confused. How was this Greek Unity, when you only had one member of a Greek Organization on the stage and the other Presidents/Representatives in the audience? I was expecting a panel discussion with all 9 orgs...well ok. Zphi!

I'm guessing all the presidents were under that assumption! ;D It was what it was! I am a big fan of Ms. Underwood, and she did great. I even have her autograph from years ago!
