MIAKA - Men Interested in being AKA's

As a blogger the oddity of it all is just so bizarre I’ve got to look. This is a little beyond my scope. BUT!! If any MIAKA out there wants to give an interview . . . Come on, I just got used to men holding hands and kissing. What the fuck is going on?

I need a time out. Somebody stop the world I need to get off. I’m not trying to trip. Just somebody tell me what’s going on? Why take over AKA’s tradition? Why not start your own Greek organization? Is there some deeper meaning? Is there some need for recognition or fulfillment that this serves that can’t be met in any other way? Why destroy something that doesn’t belong to you? Tell me cause I don’t get it. Please, somebody help me understand. So all of my brethren that are out there – let a brother know what’s going on. Video

I can’t believe that after all this time people still can’t believe that all people are created equal. It’s not that it’s a gay man think it’s an equality thing. There are black boys in the U.S that are being prosecuted and facing life in prison for fighting a white boy. This situation should have thought you non-believers a lesion, why can’t you just let these men live the way they see fit. Let them deal with the consequences. Unless they are saying FUCK A.K.A’s they are not being disrespectful.

...I would start with one or two members of the current Maladministration. It could be Star Trek cool to see lesions spontaneously appear on Bush's face during, say, a national address to inform us that the bombs are flying at Iran, or during a Cheney armchair chat with Brett Hume. Oh the fun I could have.

I have to add my .08 cents in as an active member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated. AKA has never and will never consider a man for membership into our organization. Period.

I mean, what can I say? We are the first BGLO for women so of course we are often imitated. It's bad enough that we have other sororities in our shadows imitating our every move (respect your MOTHER: DST, ZPhiB and SGRho).

These poor fellas are lost. They don't know how to be REAL men so they decided that they want to be women. Not just ANY women but the BEST kind of women. I say unto you: You can neva, neva, neva, eva, EVA EVA EVA get on my level.

Check out Omicron Psi Omega and Beta Phi Omega before you throw on some pink and green and call yourself an AKA.

The splended 16 of ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA founded this WOMENS sorority for WOMEN... Now, if you are not actually intiated (pledged) into the sorority by a lovely lady of AKA you are known as PAPER... "PAPER SKATERS" get no respect from any greek organization... NONE!!! You didn't earn the letters! Now if you want to be respected pledge a FRAT! OR create your own SORTERNITY if you like.. This is definetly disrespectful to the, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. Come on... holding up the mirror TOWARDS the TRUE AKA (your pic)!!! Put up a pinky... I don't suggest that... You can look in the mirror as much as you want, but you will never see my reflection! I love you though...

A few ground rules for submitting a comment on this thread:

1. Fully inhabit an alternate reality.
2. Have a working knowledge of and a consuming passion for the minutiae of the Greek system.
3. Speak a language incomprehensible to non-initiates.
4. Notify THB whenever you comment - it appears to be his one true joy in life.

The self-hatred displayed for entire world to see by my people on this thread, greek, non-greek, gay and straight, is both obvious and saddening.

Somewhere, white folks are reading this post and are literally rolling on the floor laughing their a$$e$ off.

Thanks everyone, for ruining 15 minutes of my day.

Now excuse me while I go fast and pray....

baby jeebus needs you to whip yourself as well as fast, please don't let him down.

i must now return to my self hating activities which include eating bacon, dancing to music made by germans, and speaking publically to paul supporters.

All I can say is wow. As a member of ALPHA PHI ALPHA Fraternity Inc., I find it appalling that these men would do such a thing to my sisters of ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA Sorority Inc. I have no problem with men being gay. If that's you, what ever fine. BUT! You will never see some dudes trying to be an Alpha without PLEDGING and the same goes for AKA if it were women. The mere fact of having the same shield, same colors, same line formation, same acts while pledging is flat WRONG. If you were trying to imitate Alpha (doing the same pledging) some serious issues would occur. Man to man, face to face type of issues and I got a feeling things would be rectified pretty quickly. Same would go for any other fraternal organization rest assured. We are all brothers and sisters in this black greek society. We joined are respective organizations for usually serious personal reasons; least I did. To mock in ANY form is wrong, man or woman. This is above and beyond wrong.

My father is an Alpha. I grew up around TOO MANY positive and well to do Alpha MEN. Shaped me as a man and I was blessed to have them around me as a young black male. God father is a Que. Good golf friend is a Que. Father in law is a Kappa and my cousin (shout out to Daryll) is a Sigma. Another cousin in ATL is a Kappa. Wife, mother, mother in law and sister in law are all strong Delta women. God mother is an AKA. Grandmother was a Zeta. I say all this because it is history. I mean serious history and not just in my family but many across the country. No one tries to be something they just can not be. Should we just let this go? Should we let black history go? We need to stand up people as African Americans and have a more positive voice. Start your own sorority or fraternity. Do not mock history nor my sisters of Alpha Kappa Alpha (flattery or not) this is not good. It's ugly. No such mockery, misrepresentation or disrespect of this kind can be tolerated. One hundred years of AKA. God bless all my sisters in all Black Sororities.

I am dumbfounded and could not believe it when I came across this nonesense...Where are the brothers of Alpha and how and why are they or ANY FRAT allowing this to go on. Everytime these fools show up they should be getting their asses stomped...and based on the brothers I knew in school, it baffles me that it has gone this far... to actually allow these fools to parade around any campus with the AKA's sheild and colors. Though I was approched, I never pledged anything but still held/hold the upmost respect for the tradition, and for the life of me I can not believe the bro's I came across while in school would ever allow our SISTERS to be so DISRESPECTED. Are the current group of MEN pledging around the country SO WEAK as to stand back and let these punks steal and degrade the sheild and colors of AKA and do NOTHING???
TRULY UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!!

It appears that what a MIAKA was years ago, is very different from what it is today. In the 1980's I was a MIAKA and we were nothing like what these comments seem to indicate it has become today. At that time MIAKA stood for Men Interested in Alpha Kappa Alpha. We were interested in helping them, certainly NOT interested in being them. Most of us had either a close friend, or relative that was an AKA. We were NOT gay, NOT feminine, and didn't think we were a frat.
We? were a male auxiliary that helped the AKA's. During the 1980's nearly every fraternity and sorority had auxiliaries of the opposite sex (not all existed on every campus,but most did). In most cities Fraternities had female auxiliaries (Kappa Diamonds, Que Pearls\Essence, Sigma Doves, and Alpha Angels), while the sororities had male auxiliaries (MIAKAs, Zeta Knights and Delta Gents\Delta Mids). Many of the people that were in an auxiliary, eventually joined a Frat or Sorority.
Occasionally MIAKAs wore pink, but more commonly we wore green.
This whole new MIAKA Fraternity stuff is totally foreign to me. I just hope that if someone hears the word MIAKA that they will realize, that it may mean very different things to different people, depending on time frame and perhaps location.
