COMMENTARY: THE UNDERGRADUATE GRAND CHAPTER OFFICERS
Prior to the nationwide declaration of emergency as a result of the worldwide pandemic, the 34 th Administration has been focused on bringing brother to brother, breaking barriers and building bridges and and with like-minded organizations across the United States. The Administration adapted and continued its engagement virtually. Some of those events are shown below.
I live in a society where a current pandemic has killed over 100,000 Americans alone, and a vaccine yet to be discovered. However, there is an epidemic that has been around for a while that we may never see a
vaccine for, and that is the fear of a Black man. Black men are much more than what society perceives us to
be. We are always told to be strong, walk straight, and do what is right, while society concur- rently tears us down. LIFE is a blessing as well as having free will, but it is a journey that is not easy. We value our freedom - but in- ternally - we are not free but rather oppressed by the systemic injustices. We are tired of the repeated “incidents”, and lack of equality in a nation that stands on “Justice for All”. DELAY- ING JUSTICE IS AN INJUSTICE.
