Statement for George Floyd
Alpha Chi Sigma Fraternity is deeply saddened and angered by the senseless deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and too many others. We recognize these events reflect the systemic ingrained racial prejudice and injustice that still exists in the United States of America. Until black lives matter we cannot be considered a free society.
As an organization founded on the principles of brotherhood, service, and education, Alpha Chi Sigma stands with our brothers to condemn these acts of violence. Diversity makes our Fraternity and our communities stronger and violence against people of color is a sign of weakness not strength. Alpha Chi Sigma has increased our efforts to promote diversity, inclusion, and brotherhood and we will strive towards these ideals every single day.
Many of our members will never know what it is like to live life as a person of color. Alpha Chi Sigma challenges all of our members to listen, support, and aid our brothers by every honorable means to make our Fraternity and our country better.
