I was on facebook one day and my cousin, who goes to ODU, sends me a screenshot from an ODU confessions page. What I read completely pissed me off. It was the most ignorant racist bs I've read in a very long time. How could you speak so negatively about something you know NOTHING about?! It may just be my personal opinion, but I don't feel like you'll ever truly understand D9 if you are not a part of one of the organizations. With that being said, DON'T SPEAK on what you DON'T KNOW! The fact that this person felt completely comfortable writing this and even the person who operates the page feeling comfortable enough posting this on that page just completely blows me. There were many things about this post that was just stupid! "Tribal dance shit" you say. "Slaves dance in public" you say. Go EDUCATE yourself! Whether it's strolling, party hopping, stepping, whatever, there is PURPOSE behind it. Of course I could sit here and tell you the importance of these aspects of our orgs but that would be too easy. Wake up and take a look around. Even with such ignorance still alive in people today, we can't and won't be stopped!
