GRAND POLEMARCH’S MESSAGE
less than 50 percent participating the MTA period. However, we are the first to emphasize that there are still challenges that will demand our constant vigilance in our MTA process. We solicit your support in helping Chapter Advisors in their oversight over our chapters. We also hope that brothers who have labored tirelessly and willingly in this 33 rd administration have felt the appre- ciation that brothers have expressed for their service. In this conclave issue of the Kappa Jour- nal, you will see coverage of stewardship of the 33 rd administration. You will see what your officers and support team has done in support of the mission and objectives we promised in New Orleans. I am grateful to Brother Cleveland Fer- guson III, Esq. for his dedicated service as Interim Editor. He assumed the position at a time when we were behind in our constitutional mandate to publish four Journals annually. He and his team have done a yeoman’s job in getting the Journal production to a place where we are now, on time as you want us to be. Thanks for supporting Brother Ferguson, and thanks for the work you have done that gives us great things to talk about.
Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. Supports the National Museum of African American History and Culture
There are four pillars upon which the National Museum of African American History and Culture stands. We honor these pillars and have chosen to participate:
It provides an opportunity for those who are interested in Afri- can American culture to explore and revel in this history through interactive exhibitions It helps all Americans see how their stories, their histories, and their cultures are shaped and informed by global influences It explores what it means to be an American and share how American values like resiliency, optimism, and spirituality are reflected in African American history and culture It serves as a place of collaboration that reaches beyond Wash- ington, D.C. to engage new audiences and to work with the myriad of museums and educational institutions that have explored and preserved this important history well before this museum was created
