Fraternities, (atleast African-American ones) provide a close-knit sense of bonding like no other found in human existence. There are often times that “brothers” in fraternities can share ideas, thoughts, and feelings with fellow “frats” that they cannot share with their family members. Also brothers in a fraternity(from the Divine 9) and other fraternal organizations will always be there to help you. However, there are some limits. A quick joke: “If your brother has a CAR, you have a CAR; If your brother has a DOLLAR, you have a DOLLAR; If you brother has a chick..Well..” Overall, most African-American member-based groups not only offer the personal, lifelong, lasting friendships that provide a pillar of assistance to individuals of “like minds”, they also provide a service to those around them and those in need.
