I’m a woman from the Caribbean and coming to the states has made me more aware of my skin color than any other place. Not everything is about race, it’s exhausting. Just chill, take deep breaths, and do you 😊
I am sorry. I believe 90s were a better kinder time. Obama made race baiting a problem because it is a way to usher in a form of communism. It does have a purpose. It is to defeat us from within.
I get that...went to a small mission school with people from ALL over the world. Everyone was just family until this one girl joined late, then everyone was white or black. Now, I'd call her out on it but at the time she just ruined it...
honestly, I was completely color blind until this whole thing blew up a few years ago, now I am more likely to notice people's skin color and I hate that, it makes me feel racist. That being said, when I looked back the only remotely racist thoughts I had ever had stemmed from the social pressure/fear of being racist. Like "Am I racist because I don't like her?" no she was just rude and a bad example of her culture, or "they tipped her more because they didn't want to seem racist." I never had these kinds of thoughts when interacting with any other race, in fact I never noticed any race unless they were speaking a different language or had a super thick accent or something obviously different from my culture because I grew up around so many of them that they were normal. When Greatest Showman came out I sat through the 1st half of the movie trying to figure out why on Earth the acrobats were part of the freak circus and it finally clicked when the mom referred to her as "the help" and I was like "oh! They're black and racism was a thing at the time!" Apparently it's back... we don't need this.
“These girls grew up with tv shows of the token black friend… Babe college kids grew up… recently. They grew up watching zendaya be the lead in her Disney show, Selena be the lead in her Disney show (both with white side kick friends)…. Even still, if he wants to get older and talk about millennials, I grew up with That’s So Raven, Smart Guy, Tia and Timara, The Cosby Show…. All majority people of colour?? These people are erasing the progress that was made so that they can feign victimhood.
I’m white but make tacos at home. Am I culturally appropriating? I play jazz and blues? Am I culturally appropriating? I also make spaghetti. Am culturally appropriating? This is all so stupid.
@@Provo647 Cultural doesn’t necessarily apply to a racial group. I was just trying to use a bit of humor to make a point. If I wanted to get technical I could say that jazz borrowed from classical music theory so could be culturally appropriating white Western European culture. But that would be stupid, too.
I was in a fraternity 20 years ago. There was no racism. We had white dudes, black guys, Hispanics, Asians, even a couple of gay guys. We even had a guy from Syria. I'm Mexican. Not one person even said anything about it. All the sororities on campus were just as culturally and racially diverse.
Yep my sorority was very diverse. The African American sororities had zero white girls. When my sorority sister and I were invited to a black fraternity party, we were totally stink eyed by the black girls. The guys were cool and it was fun, but chill ladies, we were invited.
Same! We didn’t care about race! USA almost eradicated racism in the early 2000’s, we were on our way, then we started to racialize politics and issues. We forgot the struggle of classes and instead labeled it a struggle of races. We called for reparations that had already been made, accused the system of being racist without proof, and here we are now..
Are the people complaining acknowledging that black fraternities and sororities have fewer white members than traditional fraternities and sororities have non-white members??
Traditional sororities are for every kind of girl, no matter race. Black sororities, hispanic sororities are targeted towards girls who belong to those cultural groups (and they still get some people who aren't from that ethnicity, like people trying to learn the language or culture). But non-white people tend to veer toward the cultural sororities because they're cheaper, and they might want a group they connect more culturally with. I've heard a lot of stories of non-white girls who go into traditional sororities and are bullied and feel alienated.
I knew a black guy who was in a white fraternity and he he was harassed and shunned by all the black students on campus. One black girl went through Panhalenic sorority rush and got no offers due to her very poor GPA. No chapter was even allowed to pick her up because they all had rules against accepting that low of a GPA, but even back then (the 90’s) non Greeks on campus were calling all the white sororities Ravi’s t because of it. Basically, blacks only chose black sororities mostly because they would have to go through hell by other blacks if they joined a white one!
The first sequel to that movie literally had the prototype of modern wokeness, where one of the college girls said a certain building was named for a "racist white slaveowner" in the typical lefty manner. That was in 2004.
Was that supposed to be a college setting? I thought it was a high school movie. I only ever saw it once and didn't really give it any thought afterwards and never watched any of its sequels, though.
One thing I will never understand is why everything must be racist. Like, sororities in of itself are originally from white Americans, but it’s not racist at all for a non White non American person to be a part of it?? And honestly, I wouldn’t even expect someone to care about where sororities come from either because it really does not matter. I would care 100% if white girls were purposely excluding nonwhite girls, but they’re obviously not so where’s the racism?
I was in a PHC sorority and it makes me sad when people pull the race card instead of looking into and celebrating everything the NPHC sororities have done. They are amazing and have honestly done 10x more than PHC sororities. Thank you for bringing some light to this issue.
Everything is NOT considered racist dimwits. It's only racist if it's white. You literally have black safe spaces that exclude us white girls. That's real racism, but we are here too scared to call that out. Why can't people see the most blatant double standards? 🤦🏼♀

It is ALWAYS astonishing to me how everyone that complains about white anything never complain about all black groups like the NAACP or black fraternities and sororities.
It's simple, organizations like the NAACP were formed during segregation because the only people who could help black people were themselves. All white groups or organizations have always been a thing so no one shouldn't be bothered just because black people did the same.
As a someone who was also in a sorority, we pick girls that we feel fit in with our sisterhood! At the end of the day, you are looking for the girls that are going to be your best friends and are going to be your people! Panhellenic truly does look at how you fit in with the sisterhood and how well you can fit in! I'm a person of color and was in a Panhellenic sorority and my sisters came from all walks of life, but we got along (for the time I was in) and I still talk to some of the girls to this day and we are different races! It's how we mesh well together!
As someone who joined a sorority we also were required to do a certain amount of charity work hours, we had to have above average grades so enforced study time. Running a sorority is actually a business and involves money management, people management and planning of events. Yes, there’s a lot of silliness but there is also serious stuff too.
I think its funny how the ppl screaming "theres not enough black ppl!" seem physically unable to comprehend that theres not many black ppl there simply bc the black ppl chose not to join the sorority. Also id argue that the black sorority is less diverse and accepting, bc while the "white" sorority would accept in black girls in a heartbeat without a second thought, the black sorority wouldn't accept in white girls bc its a "black sorority"
same as the sexist movement for women in male dominated spaces. its not that men are gate keeping, its that women dont choose to do those jobs. always found it funny that they want to force women to do things they dont want to do in the name of feminism.

Brett... you are the Eminem of pod casters. You can speak at the speed of light and every word is as clear as could be. My daughter was watching this with me and she had some questions of course about sororities but at the same time she also realized how quickly you can talk and still be crystal clear.
My cousin was the most strait-laced, serious, studious, and virginal student ever and she was in a sorority. They’re not all like 80s movies make it out to be.
@@virginiaordaya it takes all kinds! We were the biggest party sorority on campus but we also had Christian good girls who never drank or slept around. I now admire those girls since I am mom of a daughter!
Sororities and fraternities can be key segments of university life, offering networks, friendships and development opportunities. These social organizations, their ceremonies, and their representations should be understood better while respecting their traditions. They are part of the bigger picture of our educational institutions and should be seen as such.
It used to be a form like you said complentary flattering to enjoy music dishes/cuisine styles customs/traditions from other cultures. Now it's all about white people stealing from non whites because according to the woke mindset white people have no culture of thier culture of thier own.
It should rightly be called "Cultural Appreciation". People from other cultures love to see foreigners trying out their foods, clothes, culture -- it's middle-aged, mostly-white, feminists who hate cultural sharing. Sounds rather N@zi-ish to me! (And I don't mean that as a joke, but literally.)
8:19 The college that I went to was a small, Christian, liberal arts college named The King’s College NYC. Instead of fraternities and sororities, we had houses named after notable historic figures. As a member of the house of Sir Winston Churchill, Dr. Anthony Bradley was our house’s faculty advisor. All of us men of Churchill owe him many thanks. He poured so much of himself into all of us. I hope he is doing well.
I grew up in Africa as a white girl and yeah it was kind of hard to fit in with a huge group of Africans who didn’t know any other white people. I eventually found a great friend group made up of Asians Canadians and Africans and we all brought different things to the table.
@@H00D3N Oh I see. I am from around that area of the continent. There is almost a total ethnic homogeneity in the region. Many people of European/ Western stock left the continent post independence. Hence, the lack of relatability in many instances and it can lead to awkward encounters similar to having an African dude smack in the middle of the less visited parts of China, as numerous TH-cam videos highlight. Thus, leading to a person being perceived as exotic but no harm is intended though.
What’s crazy to me is that the differences in the sororities are the service missions, perhaps hints of the protestant faith traditions they were launched from when the sororities were founded at various small liberal arts or teaching colleges, and their colors, flowers, gems and symbols. Other things that young ladies used in considering the choice of sororities were affiliations with specific majors (formal or informal), and the requirements for housing. Frankly, the Greek system at universities provides boundaries, and some people just thrive when they have extra boundaries. People imposing their own political values on others are short-sighted and ignorant, and those people need to explore their own issues first to find out what’s best for them.
At UGA a fraternity had to cancel a philanthropy event called Badminton and Boujee for cultural appropriation. It was literally a badminton tournament for cancer research named after a rap song that uses French terminology
4:35 You reminded me of the black family on SouthPark. The parents were, like, President and co-president of the "Lord of the Rings" fanclub. The young male black child was named "Tolkien," which Cartman kept pronouncing "Token."
People need to know that you have to have good grades and “rent” money to live and be apart of a sororitie. Seattle has a “pretty girl” sorority and it wouldn’t matter on their race. It’s grades and social class that determines these things.
@@J4nnikm no like trans women/MEN have been allowed into women’s dorms and restrooms in schools but some sororities stop them from joining keeping it WOMEN only
As a black woman who just graduated college and was in a sorority, we had girls of all shades and racism was never a problem. I swear these “problems” are just appearing out of thin air 🙄
How does this guy know that the ladies got their dances from the Black community and not from movies, TikTok, and the Internet. Even the ones he thinks are from the Black community might actually have been from another group. Nothing is new under the sun. I’d like to see him just pick a different topic that is more worth his time since he is so invested.
As an individual in a black sorority I can proudly say that we would never make a dance video for rush😂 we also don’t do the race wars nobody has time for that shit 😂😂
@@Skitdora2010 No doubt. I was trying to say in response to the original poster boasting that they "don't do the race wars" that the way they have gone about that is not through goodwill toward other races but by keeping their sorority only one race.
Generally I speed up all narrations (normally x1.5) that I watch because I get bored easy. With Brett I've never had the need to do so. Not only is your narration timely it's completely articulated too.
7:30 At least from this black man, Brett, it sucks you felt you might be offensive. But i agree; it's impossible to have an overwhelming amount of Black sorority/fraternity members when they make up 4%-12% of the school population.
If it’s not this thing, it will be something else. Folks are gonna find something to hate about because they can’t function in life without all the negativity.
I was in a sorority in college about 35 years ago. We did not create videos (social media didn’t exist). I was very good friends with a black woman who was in a traditionally black sorority. I got tickets from her every year to the Step Show (an event traditional black organizations hold). I was one of the few white people there but I always loved going and supporting her (and several other classmates I knew but was more casual friends with). Can’t we just do what we want to do and support each other in our choices?
Let's also not forget that some of these schools in question ALSO have historically-black sororities/fraternities that tend to self-segregate anyway. So, we're talking about a low percentage of overall school attendance that then is supposedly looking at an option that ISN'T made for them.
3:35 i think culture is meant to be shared and it irks me when people try to gatekeep it. Although it also irks me when someone trys to reinvent or rename a part of someones culture. Like "the tyla dance" being bacardi and "white boy carl braids" being cornrows.
when i went to college in NY, most of the black girls were in black sororities and latinas in latina sororities. there were a small number in the white sororities...never say a white girl in a black or latina sorority though
I'm confused why they are even called white sorority if they are not exclusively white 😂. Shouldn't it be then called the unirace( like in unisex ) sorority instant 🤔.
I hope you're wrong about that, I really do hope you're wrong about that, honestly!! We gotta get this country turned back around & get it on the right track!!
Sorry, as a Black woman I wouldn't even want to be in that environment. I'm not interested in COMPLETELY surrounding myself with people who look nothing like me. That sorority has an aesthetic and I'm not it and I literally don't care.
As a Nigerian girl I’m not Offended we can speak for ourselves, and last time I checked a white girl was calling them out not a black girl. We have our own sorority come on guys ,speak for yourselfs not for others. (unless its really bad or needed)
I am too old for social media, but isn’t the whole thing on TikTok that you do your version of a dance or skit that you like? Also, Bring it On already used this plot. Everyone needs to relax
Lol yes everyone steals from everyone and gets mad about it only sad people who don't have anything going on in there on lives really care about this not issues for normal people
It’s also worth mentioning that, in the South, a large majority of African American students still attend HBCUs. So, at larger SEC sorority schools you’re just unlikely to see them because they are literally on a different campus. As she said, UA’s student demo is on 13% African American because there are literally 14 HBCUs in the state. The highest number of any state in the country.
Hi could you please cover the Kolkata rape case in india is is going on recently. I feel like if this case international notice, justice will be given to the doctor who sacrificed her young life to serve her rapists. Love from india
Watching TV, especially commercials, seems to make people not realize this. I asked someone no long ago what they thought the black population of the US is, and she said around 40%. I told her it's more like 13%. She couldn't believe it.
I seriously don’t understand why we have to argue about everything can we look to a ride from all the way back in the 60s called It’s A Small World oh idk about celebrating what makes us all different, and what makes us all similar, celebrating the beautiful world we live in, celebrating being human. I’ve said this in so many comments and I’m going to say it again if we look at the past we will miss the future! We need to stop complaining and victimizing ourselves we live in a beautiful world with beautiful people and your beautiful self as well. We all need to celebrate and find what it means to be human life is so short and will pass by so quickly. So stop complaining and appreciate the sunsets you get to watch with your loved ones, appreciate how wonderful the world is, please just celebrate you!

It should rightly be called "Cultural Appreciation". People from other cultures love to see foreigners trying out their foods, clothes, culture -- it's middle-aged, mostly-white, feminists who hate cultural sharing. Sounds rather N@zi-ish to me! (And I don't mean that as a joke, but literally.)
And wow. The way white girls copy that country music line dancing from… 🤔
Agreed.
8:19 The college that I went to was a small, Christian, liberal arts college named The King’s College NYC. Instead of fraternities and sororities, we had houses named after notable historic figures. As a member of the house of Sir Winston Churchill, Dr. Anthony Bradley was our house’s faculty advisor. All of us men of Churchill owe him many thanks. He poured so much of himself into all of us. I hope he is doing well.
Churchill was an evil drunk who destroyed England. It is the way it is today because of him.
I grew up in Africa as a white girl and yeah it was kind of hard to fit in with a huge group of Africans who didn’t know any other white people. I eventually found a great friend group made up of Asians Canadians and Africans and we all brought different things to the table.
What is your country of origin and which country in Africa if I may ask out of curiosity?
Zambia, thanks for asking
@@H00D3N Oh I see. I am from around that area of the continent. There is almost a total ethnic homogeneity in the region. Many people of European/ Western stock left the continent post independence. Hence, the lack of relatability in many instances and it can lead to awkward encounters similar to having an African dude smack in the middle of the less visited parts of China, as numerous TH-cam videos highlight. Thus, leading to a person being perceived as exotic but no harm is intended though.
Lol my mom has curated her Instagram reels just to be sorority videos
I have a lot in common with her
Your mom is deranged.
That’s sad.
@@FirstNameLastName-wt5to Better than curating one's feed with rage bait
What's her@ 👀
That is literally the plot of Bring it On 😂😂😂
What’s crazy to me is that the differences in the sororities are the service missions, perhaps hints of the protestant faith traditions they were launched from when the sororities were founded at various small liberal arts or teaching colleges, and their colors, flowers, gems and symbols. Other things that young ladies used in considering the choice of sororities were affiliations with specific majors (formal or informal), and the requirements for housing. Frankly, the Greek system at universities provides boundaries, and some people just thrive when they have extra boundaries. People imposing their own political values on others are short-sighted and ignorant, and those people need to explore their own issues first to find out what’s best for them.
Sounds like marketing from national.
"Your ad transition will become as smooth as Brett's". I nearly died laughing

Fun is “racist” apparently.
@@theoriginalkrabbypattySo is being happy at something or someone.
It's the plot from "bring it on" ! Brr, it's cold in here, there must be some X in the atmosphere!
Why do we care? People will always find a way to find a problem with anything if you look for it.
At UGA a fraternity had to cancel a philanthropy event called Badminton and Boujee for cultural appropriation. It was literally a badminton tournament for cancer research named after a rap song that uses French terminology
I can’t believe people still be talking about cultural appropriation seriously…
What culture got appropriated? French? If so, the whole world is in a lot of trouble.
What in the “Bring it On”?!?!? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 everyone should just do some “spirit fingers” and call it a day
That south park clip got me 😂😭
“Bring it on” but 2024. 😂
4:35 You reminded me of the black family on SouthPark. The parents were, like, President and co-president of the "Lord of the Rings" fanclub. The young male black child was named "Tolkien," which Cartman kept pronouncing "Token."
People need to know that you have to have good grades and “rent” money to live and be apart of a sororitie. Seattle has a “pretty girl” sorority and it wouldn’t matter on their race. It’s grades and social class that determines these things.
tbh I think sororities get too much hate because at least unlike the schools some of them are stopping men coming in
You mean this in a sexist way?
@@J4nnikm no like trans women/MEN have been allowed into women’s dorms and restrooms in schools but some sororities stop them from joining keeping it WOMEN only
The coffee mug, the movement of the hands. You made me stress whole video. Wonder how many times you spilled those cups. Would be suprised if none :D
As a black woman who just graduated college and was in a sorority, we had girls of all shades and racism was never a problem. I swear these “problems” are just appearing out of thin air 🙄
How does this guy know that the ladies got their dances from the Black community and not from movies, TikTok, and the Internet. Even the ones he thinks are from the Black community might actually have been from another group. Nothing is new under the sun. I’d like to see him just pick a different topic that is more worth his time since he is so invested.
He seems to spend most of his time looking for things to get triggered about.
@@oldgordo61Too much soy rots your brain.
He bent the knee for BLM. He hates his whiteness so he puts whites down so he can receive adulation from the woke group...
Look like cheerleader dance moves to me. No matter the race
I've seen this movie... It was called _"Bring It On"_ 😂😂😂
2:48 that's Bring it On🤣🤣💀
I love your videos Brett!
6:30 Just FYI, he most likely is actually trolling. These tweets are from Richard Hanania - he's a right wing commentator! 😂
Exactly my thought
Are they complaining about the exact plot of Bring It On from 2000? My oh my how history repeats itself
I've been doom scrolling waiting for a good video 😂 hi Brett, you win
Social medias are ruining the youth fun years
As an individual in a black sorority I can proudly say that we would never make a dance video for rush😂 we also don’t do the race wars nobody has time for that shit 😂😂
But are step shows still popular within the Divine 9 Greek life?
Right, you avoid race wars by keeping your sorority black.
@@jonathanpauldavenport My school was mixed and friendly to all, but we were NY. Woke comes from California- commifornia. Racism is taught.
@@Skitdora2010 No doubt. I was trying to say in response to the original poster boasting that they "don't do the race wars" that the way they have gone about that is not through goodwill toward other races but by keeping their sorority only one race.
@@jonathanpauldavenportor by and large non-black women don't pledge D9 sororities that much.
To be honest I think I'm in love with that shirt your wearing ❤❤❤❤
I'm very excited to watch this😊❤
Generally I speed up all narrations (normally x1.5) that I watch because I get bored easy. With Brett I've never had the need to do so. Not only is your narration timely it's completely articulated too.
7:30 At least from this black man, Brett, it sucks you felt you might be offensive. But i agree; it's impossible to have an overwhelming amount of Black sorority/fraternity members when they make up 4%-12% of the school population.
People who get upset about stuff like this don't have anything worth getting upset about in their lives. That tells you all you need to know.
Why don't black sororities have ebonic letters instead of Greek letters. They could be the "Click Click Pop"

If it’s not this thing, it will be something else. Folks are gonna find something to hate about because they can’t function in life without all the negativity.
Woahhh 7 minutes ago!!!??? I was literally just watching your last video!! Brett Cooper is the best hahaha!!! 😲😲😲🤯🤯🤯🤣🤣🤣😎😎😎🎊🎊🎊💜💜💜✨✨✨
It’s giving “Bring It On”
I was in a sorority in college about 35 years ago. We did not create videos (social media didn’t exist).
I was very good friends with a black woman who was in a traditionally black sorority.
I got tickets from her every year to the Step Show (an event traditional black organizations hold). I was one of the few white people there but I always loved going and supporting her (and several other classmates I knew but was more casual friends with).
Can’t we just do what we want to do and support each other in our choices?
Let's also not forget that some of these schools in question ALSO have historically-black sororities/fraternities that tend to self-segregate anyway. So, we're talking about a low percentage of overall school attendance that then is supposedly looking at an option that ISN'T made for them.
Another amazing, thought out, and truly logical video! Keep up it and keep these videos coming.
Isn't this the plot of "Bring it on"?
I'm suddenly reminded of that scene, well a couple, from the original Bring it On.
“Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness” is a quote by Oscar Wilde
Is THAT the actual quote that people are famously only half-quoting? I have never heard that before. Sure puts a different spin on the meaning.
@@fredhughes4115 ?
"Wanna make your ad transitions as smooth as Brett's" 😂😂 Literally every video has an ad ambush
I will say this, sorority girls on average are a lot more conservative than most people would think. Same with the Frat bros, for that matter.
not surprised for frat bros, however im surprised about sororities being conservative. Normaly womens tend to vote democrat
Nah they are easy lays. Ain’t nothing conservative about that
Republican right-wing, sure. Conservative? Noooooooooo.
Not true. Look at how suburban, unmarried white women vote.
This is the demographic that has driven the Democrats so far left on social issues.
No. Sorority girls are image conscious. And I wouldn’t even say that image is conservative. They just need to do enough to not violate the rules.
3:35 i think culture is meant to be shared and it irks me when people try to gatekeep it. Although it also irks me when someone trys to reinvent or rename a part of someones culture. Like "the tyla dance" being bacardi and "white boy carl braids" being cornrows.
White boy what 😭😂?
I’m sorry white boy WHAT???!!😭😭
@@langamabhena9017 at that point they're doing it on purpose 😅
Family’s guys rush video was so on point
when i went to college in NY, most of the black girls were in black sororities and latinas in latina sororities. there were a small number in the white sororities...never say a white girl in a black or latina sorority though
I assume when you say white you mean white north american. Because otherwise, it would be weird not having a white person in a lartina sorority
@@luckluca8982 i mean caucasian = white girls.
I'm confused why they are even called white sorority if they are not exclusively white 😂. Shouldn't it be then called the unirace( like in unisex ) sorority instant 🤔.
@@EuleMiyu the majority are white...but most of them had a couple that were not white.
Colleges will be almost all women in the future, and most people will care even less.
You think men will stop being engineers and doctors and lawyers?
@@FirstNameLastName-wt5to No that's why I said "almost".
I hope you're wrong about that, I really do hope you're wrong about that, honestly!! We gotta get this country turned back around & get it on the right track!!
At which point, you better be preparing for The Troubles (but for the whole world)
@@EthanWillingham We have a society that cares about women only, a mistake many will live to regret.
Alii from Palau!! 🇵🇼
I love The Comment Section!!
Honestly why do we care how about things like this? Let fraternities and sororities be man. let the college kids have fun.
All black sororities would be completely accepted.
Now that would be cultural appropriation at its finest
This man is trying to make bring it on happen irl
Not allowed to have fun in a group anymore
Or at all
Let alone be happy (at someone or at something or joyful, which is considered racist. 🤦♂
Dance sing or whatever their talent is had me rolling 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I find this whole sorority thing fascinating. Scary too, but fascinating. You should totally do a series on “Bama Rush” 😂 it’s WILD
The all black sororities and fraternities are literally all black
Sorry, as a Black woman I wouldn't even want to be in that environment. I'm not interested in COMPLETELY surrounding myself with people who look nothing like me. That sorority has an aesthetic and I'm not it and I literally don't care.
I thought if you wanted to surround yourself with people that look like you is racist (i.e. KKK, women's only clubs, men's only clubs, etc )
Didn’t we address this in Bring it On 1 ? Toros are No 1 !!! :)
As a Nigerian girl I’m not Offended we can speak for ourselves, and last time I checked a white girl was calling them out not a black girl. We have our own sorority come on guys ,speak for yourselfs not for others. (unless its really bad or needed)
It's okay to have a group of all white girls in a sorority for the same reason it's okay to have a group of all black girls in a sorority
That is literally the story to the Classic movie BRING IT ON
I am too old for social media, but isn’t the whole thing on TikTok that you do your version of a dance or skit that you like? Also, Bring it On already used this plot. Everyone needs to relax
I love some sorority videos.
Aren't black sororities stealing the idea of having a sorority at all?
Lol yes everyone steals from everyone and gets mad about it only sad people who don't have anything going on in there on lives really care about this not issues for normal people
No
@@ellenmerkle940 Explain
Yes its called cultural appropriation
It’s also worth mentioning that, in the South, a large majority of African American students still attend HBCUs. So, at larger SEC sorority schools you’re just unlikely to see them because they are literally on a different campus. As she said, UA’s student demo is on 13% African American because there are literally 14 HBCUs in the state. The highest number of any state in the country.
This was posted like 5 minutes ago and now i feel like some kind of stalker or something lol

Hi could you please cover the Kolkata rape case in india is is going on recently. I feel like if this case international notice, justice will be given to the doctor who sacrificed her young life to serve her rapists. Love from india
Yeah we saw 'Bring it On'
Hi have a great day
As someone who is currently in university full-time, I don't know how these ppl in sororities find the time to be doing all that.
But but but we have to keep apologising for being white.🙄
Token black friends? TOKEN black friends? Like a thing you buy and trade around because theyre cool?
Thats not at all demeaning in any way
When you realise that America is majority white
Watching TV, especially commercials, seems to make people not realize this. I asked someone no long ago what they thought the black population of the US is, and she said around 40%. I told her it's more like 13%. She couldn't believe it.
Yep....math matters.
Only if the US Census is lying, or you lump Asians, Latinos, and other non African Heritage people as White.
I seriously don’t understand why we have to argue about everything can we look to a ride from all the way back in the 60s called It’s A Small World oh idk about celebrating what makes us all different, and what makes us all similar, celebrating the beautiful world we live in, celebrating being human. I’ve said this in so many comments and I’m going to say it again if we look at the past we will miss the future! We need to stop complaining and victimizing ourselves we live in a beautiful world with beautiful people and your beautiful self as well. We all need to celebrate and find what it means to be human life is so short and will pass by so quickly. So stop complaining and appreciate the sunsets you get to watch with your loved ones, appreciate how wonderful the world is, please just celebrate you!
