The state of Indiana became the 19th state of the Union in 1816 and it founded Indiana University in Bloomington four years later... In the school years of 1910-11, a small group of Black students attended Indiana University. Most of them were working their way through school. The number of places where they might assemble was limited. Realizing that they had no part in the social life of the university and drawn together by common interests, they decided that a Greek-letter fraternity would do much to fill the missing link in their college existence… Kappa Alpha Psi® is the 2nd oldest existing collegiate historically Black Greek Letter Fraternity and the 1st intercollegiate Fraternity incorporated as a national body.” (kappaalphapsi1911.com) #BlackMenMatter #BlackMenAreDope #BlackCulture #DopeBlackness #KappaAlphaPsi #nupes #kapsi #καψ #kappaalphapsifraternityinc #kapsi1911 #goodnupes #kappaland "The Male Perspective" is hosted by Lana Reid, the founder of Conversations in Color, a nonprofit 501(c)3 grassroots organization dedicated to providing uplifting and community building spaces of dialogue for Black voices.
