Welcome to my Sorors of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc.

Zeta Phi Beta Sorority and Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Founders Dinner

Since Fall 1977, I’ve been a member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., with my initiation at Clark College (now Clark Atlanta University), Psi Chapter.  I am committed to the high ideals of Zeta Phi Beta, the only constitutionally bound sister organization of a fraternity, Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc.  In 1989, alongside my Soror Mother Angie Wead, and other wonderful ladies, I became a founder of a graduate extension of Zeta Phi Beta, Xi Xi Zeta Chapter, Lithonia, GA.

I am also a proud member of the “Divine Nine” — the unique, excellent collection of Black-letter Greek organizations. What a bonus.

Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated was founded on January 16, 1920, at Howard University, Washington, D.C. The Klan was active during this period, and the Harlem Renaissance was acknowledged as the first important movement of Black artists and writers in the U.S. This same year the Volstead Act became effective, heralding the start of Prohibition and Tennessee delivered the crucial 36th ratification for the final adoption of the 19th amendment giving women the right to vote. The worst and longest economic recession to hit the U.S. would define the end of the decade-The Great Depression.
