There's no rule preventing minority membership and I know BRCC in recent years has tried to actively recruit minority members who can afford it. They haven't had luck because interest isn't there on the minorities side of the equation.

They can have that when whites can have equal representation in sports.

Im guessing the number of black folks in BR that want or could afford a country club membership is pretty low


WHY SHOULD THAT MATTER!

Rabble rabble racism!

I don't think that's how it works. I'm sure if they can afford it, nobody will turn them away.


LOL that's not how BRCC works. Or any decent country club.

I'm sure that stat is about as real as your membership.
Out your bottom so at least something is colored on you.

They should rotate donating their memberships a month or quarter at a time to a family of POC so they can be honorary members and they can feel better about themselves

People have been saying this for years.

My honest answer, to quote Smokey, is “I don’t give a FUUUUUUCK!”


Country club membership is a membership in a private organization which can set their own rules.

Are the local chapters of AKA, Zeta Phi Beta, Omega Psi Phi, Kappa Alpha Psy, etc, opening themselves to white members?

The chapter of AKA in town is on Main St, right by the old Godchaux’s store, so it isn’t like this is a chapter just for Southern’s campus.

Bumping this because you got rejected for membership?

Basic logic tells me there are more white people who aren’t members than there are black people who aren’t.

You're so fragile, creating imaginary dangers just to cope. Nobody trying to jump at BRCC memberships.
