In this episode of the Narrative Project, Mica, Hazal, Irene, Andrea, and Brenda discuss sorority and fraternity life and power-based personal violence. They begin the conversation by defining what “Greek,” or sorority and fraternity, life looks like on campus and their involvement. They share their positions, experience with mentorship, and friendships within their sororities. Addressing stereotypes, they discuss barriers many BIPOC individuals face when trying to join a sorority or fraternity and what changes need to be made to foster inclusivity. The group highlights how power dynamics work within these organizations, particularly between new and old members, and ends the episode with a conversation on double standards and how sorority and fraternity life should continue to improve.
Content Warning: mention of hypersexualization of women and sexual assault.
