Don’t let the title fool you.  Read the WHOLE piece.  Mo’Kelly isn’t the ONLY one who can see through the propaganda…

Leave the AKAs Alone!

“However, the lawsuit at hand is not challenging whether AKA has properly done community service or promoted its sisterhood. The central issues – which international president Ms. McKinzie is willfully clouding are as follows: did Ms. McKinzie or didn’t she use the sorority credit card for personal gain?

Did she or didn’t she take what used to be a volunteer position as president and turn it into a $375,000 position without members’ approval? Did she or didn’t she spend $900,000 or how ever much on those now-infamous wax figures? Did the board of directors grant her a $4,000 a month pension after her term is up and take out a $1 million life insurance policy and violate AKA bylaws? Although I do wonder why all of the sorority business is being put out on front street, I understand that members tried to private bring their concerns to Ms. McKinzie at the Centennial Boule last year but she blew them off.

This lawsuit has now become public interest, especially since AKA can only continue to function if people allow their daughters, sisters, cousins, young friends, etc. to join. Also, AKA has gotten and perhaps is still getting federal and state grants at the chapter level to implement some of its programs.
