MARTIN LUTHER KING DAY -- 25th Anniversary

Happy Birthday, to a great man...


  
 It is hopeful that many brothers will be able to observe and honor Omega Chapter Brother Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., on the national day of commemoration this year.

Dr. King is the fourth person from the left. He was initiated at Sigma Chapter , Boston Metro chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, while he was a graduate student at Boston University


This Monday is a day to collectively remember the sacrifices and struggles of the Black race in America.


We fortunately found a drum major for justice with Bro. King.
