African American Fraternities and Sororities: The Legacy and the Vision
Description
This collection examines the history, influence, and enduring significance of the nine African American Greek-letter organizations that comprise the National Pan-Hellenic Council. It situates their development within the broader traditions of Black community-building, leadership, education, and social activism, tracing connections to earlier movements and institutions. With particular attention to the civil rights era, the book considers how these fraternities and sororities helped shape American history while addressing the challenges and possibilities that lie ahead. Thoughtful and wide-ranging, it offers both a legacy of collective achievement and a vision for continued service and progress.
