Where did Randi get the idea that sororities are "angry sistas"?

Black sororities -- which date back officially to 1908 -- are the backbone of the "Black Middle Class". They're not "angry", they are actually rather "proper".

Since we're all talking about "Black firsts" tonight, here's another one:

Alpha Kappa Alpha

Yeah, it was talking to Ed in Chicago, who mistook Randi being an honorary member of a sorority instead of the Congressional Black Congress.

She educated people on the CBC. It was a passing comment, but one that I could not pass up. It's like...come ON. lol

AKA is my family's sorority. My mother was one.

I ran screaming from the cult of the pink and green in undergrad, but I know where they came from and what they are all about...as a Black institution, they deserve their props.

Michelle is an honorary member, or somesuch, so I've read.
