Taking It To The Streets: Fraternity Life with Brother Toby Miller


Listen Later

Join me as I am joined by Brother Toby Miller; President of the Indianapolis Chapter of the Iota Phi Theta Fraternity, to discuss black fraternities and how the Iota Phi Theta Fraternity has taken a stand, and is piloting some new approaches through the Alpha Alpha Omega Indianapolis Alumni Chapter, which has established a new model for doing this work.
What is unique about this brother is that he does not think it is acceptable for fraternities and sororities to persist without challenging them to become the vanguard organizations they can and should be. He wants to challenge and invite our communities' institutions to evaluate their relevance in the thought and servant leadership of our communities.
Brother Toby is changing the game and the face of black fraternities by making strides in changing it's philosophy, function and flow in the home, church, and in our communities. Gone are the days of the "Talented Tenth", because Brother Miller is calling for every man to take their rightful place in our communities to effect change. He is taking the fraternity from an "exclusive" organization to an "inclusive" organization; inviting men to find and cultivate their purpose, and equipping them for the journey that lies ahead. He is working to change the elitist and secrective face of fraternities to one that embraces anyone with a willing heart to serve their fellow man.
