: MediaTakeOut.com got its hands on a pic of ... well, we're not quite sure what this is a pic of...
SORORS Please do not donate tee shirts with official symbols or letters! Scrapbook them or pass them down... someone obviously paid this man...
@ stopit

AND Lastly... you sound bitter did you try to get down and could not make the cut? GET IT TOGETHER
smOO-OOPches to all my DivaSTAting SORORS!
It's obvious that he has absolutely no clue what's going on in these pictures. Like others have said, he probably picked this up at the Goodwill with no idea of the cultural signifigance it has.
I wouldn't be surprised if an MTO staffer saw this and paid dude to make the sign just to start some controversy. Be mad at the person who put this guy up to it, not the guy.
And stop being ignorant MTO, how do you know this man's a immigrant? Not every person of hispanic decent in this country got here but sneaking over the border. That's the equivalent of white folks telling black people they came from the jungle. Grow up.
@ 1913 - there are lesbo Delta rejects who pledge as 'female ques' at famu....on youtube
@ SIR - obviously you were rejected by one of the organizations, you all are the ones who talk down on the divine 9. i didn't pledge b/c i was a loser....
why is anyone giving away/throwing away their letters? i wish i would! i don't care if the shirt, jacket, etc. doesn't fit anymore. it will NEVER be trashed. that's disresepect in itself. someone should be looking for #10 who crossed at ___ chapter in spring ___
WTF!! How EXActly DO U KNOw he's mexican? and just cuz he's a gardner or whatever , he has 2 b a immigrant - THAT is sooooooooo fucken racist !! IM Mexican n i was born in California . Thats like me seeing a black person n posting something saying look at this [EXPLETIVE]!! I dont give a [EXPLETIVE] where homeboy got the shirt from ... this is considered BIGTIME NEWs... WTF .... you all r FUCKEN LAME!! N 2 THINK I ACTUALLY USED 2 LOVE MEDIATAKEOUT
Fraternity/sorority imposters used go to the store and have nalia made all the time when I was in college. They wear it places where they thought people did not recognize them and risk a beat down. Stop giving DST such a hard time folks. I would not trip if it were my sorority, it is so obvious this fool is not a delta.
GreekLife1913 Flag post SORORS Please do not donate tee shirts with official symbols or letters! Scrapbook them or pass them down... [SPAM][SPAM]___________
You would think this would be common knowledge to any Black greek...you NEVER donate or give away your letters because only the chosen few are worthy to wear them....
Then again, there are "skaters" in all organizations...who slide in and don't appreciate fully what the letters mean because they didn't really earn them
LOL @ Sir's comment....ALWAYS got some G.D.I. out there trying to hate...
@ londyn, mzarrogance and 1way_AKA...Sending BLACK and GOLD love at ya...
FOR ALL YOU DELTA HATER'S... GROW UP! ASK YOURSELF WHY ARE YOU HATING! DID YOU WANT TO JOIN AND WAS DENIED? DELTA'S ARE WOMEN OF DISTINCTION AND GRACE. THIS PIC ABOVE IS DEFINITELY OLD AND THE DELTA'S ARE NOT CONCERNED WITH WHY HE IS WEARING THAT T-SHIRT. WE HAVE A SINCE OF HUMOR TOO. AGAIN, TO THE HATERS... GROW UP!
No not necessarily, what happened was whoever was the owner of that shirt probably gave it away to some salvation army or something like that, where he probably buys his clothes and he picked it up. Many mexicans go to places like the salvation army to buy clothes, furniture or whatever.. That girl that was the owner of the shirt didnt pay close attention to giving it away and where it was going.. I pledged that sorority 2 years in a row and still didnt get in, no comments on the ladies at Alabama State University, but my point is, it must be nice.. If I had made it in, I would keep all my shirts or whatever for life....
@sir, you stated that you think 'anyone who is in a fraternaty or sorrority is a punk @ss loser. They can't find friends on their own and need a security blanket for their low self esteems'.
Are you implying that the following people are all punk a@@, because they are all greek:
Dr. Martin Luther King, W.E.B. Dubois, Thurgood Marshall, Dr. Maya Angelou, Ella Fitzgerald, Rosa Parks, Dr. Bernard A. Harris, Robert Johnson, Langston Hughes, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Dr. Carter G. Woodson, Dr. Charles Drew, Nikki Giovanni, Lena Horne, George Washington Carver, Nelson Mandela, Violette Anderson, Neale Hurston, Hattie McDaniels, Mary Washington and Bobby Rush.
If you don't know who some of these people are, you should look them up and educate yourself before you start calling them punk a@@ losers...
To my greek family, please except my apologies if I didn't name a famous person from your Org.
Now who's pathetic????
JQ OWT...
Please feel free to comment.
IDidSoCanYou... I swear this is no way disrespectfull, but I honestly want to know the significance of the "greek" in the frats and sororities. I never understood how black folks could rep so hard symbolism from another culture. Is it just the letters that are greek or what is the history behind it.
@sosincere, I don't think that was a disrespectful question, but rather a good question. I hate to answer a question with another question, but have you noticed that African Americans rep everything hard, rather it's their neighborhood, city, state, etc...We don’t own any of those things. We join these orgs because we feel, depending on our org, that it's the best org in life. The Greek community has done so much for the African American race and other races. 87% of people that are Greek graduated from college with at least a bachelor degree and is very successful. That percentage is about 2-3 years old, but as time goes on and orgs grow, I would assume that number would increase.
As far as the history of the Greeks, each Greek has a different background. I can only tell you the information that you can find on the net. It's not a secret society, but a society with a lot of secrets.
Fyi, and I'm not trying to be an a@@hole, but African Americans have being reppin symbolism from other countries since we were taken from African 400 years ago.
LEAVE IT TO A 2ND RATE "GOSSIP" OR "NEWS" WEBSITE LIKE MTO TO POST SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND THINK IT'S AMUSING. THOSE OF YOU WHO FOUND THIS FUNNY BC OF "WHO" THE PERSON IS IN THIS PICTURE SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES. YOUR PARENTS SHOULD HAVE TAUGHT YOU BETTER THAN TO MAKE FUN OF THE PEOPLE WHO DO THE JOBS THAT YOU DONT WANT. THERE'S NO SHAME IN THE SERVICE INDUSTRY. AND SO WHAT IF HE IS AN IMMIGRANT? HOW MANY OF YOU CAN SAY THAT YOU WOULD BE WILLING TO SHARE AN APARTMENT WITH GOD KNOWS HOW MANY OTHER MEN AND GET PAID 1/2 OF WHAT US AMERICANS GET PAID AND WORK YOUR ASSES OFF DAY IN AND DAY OUT (ALL WHILE BEING DISRESPECTED BY PPL LIKE YOU) JUST SO THAT YOU CAN MAKE A BETTER LIFE FOR YOURSELF OR YOUR FAMILY? THE SAME PEOPLE MAKING FUN ARE PROBABLY THE LOSERS THAT ARE STILL LIVING AT HOME BROKE AS HELL, JOBLESS, NOT PAYING YOUR CHILD SUPPORT. EDUCATE YOURSELF AND LEARN TO RESPECT YOUR FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS. IF NOT, DONT BE SURPRISED WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF DISRESPECTED. RACISM IS NOT HUMOROUS NO MATTER WHAT RACE IS THE BUTT OF THE JOKE.
I am more concerned about the soror who thought so little of our beautiful sorority, that she chose to discard her shirt........who pissed her off?? She could have given it as a gift to a new soror, or her "special". @sosincere, you can Google "Black Greek Organizations" to find the meaning of the greek symbols....you may be surprised at what you might find out!!
first of all, how do you know this gentleman is mexican? did you even ask? second, how do you know he is an immigrant? did you ask? or just decided to make assumptions. he obviously does not know what those symbols stand for. at least he is just trying to earn a decent living by working, just like those other men in the background. you should probably learn from them. i do not find any humor in this type of media.
As a proud member of Delta Sigma Theta sorority, Inc. I do not find humor in this picture. It seems some sorors have forgotten what it means to wear these letters. These letters represent much more than this joke, or maybe they don't remember or know because they didn't have to work hard to wear these letters and therefore do not take them seriously.
