BILOXI, Miss. (WLOX) - More than 100 years ago, young African American women strived to uplift their community in a positive way. Black Greek-lettered organizations known as the âDivine Nineâ allowed them to do that.
Here on the Gulf Coast, there are many people involved in those organizations that serve their community and carrying on the history. You hear the chants mainly on college campuses and you see the strolls, but most importantly for the organizations, itâs the service Black Greek-lettered sororities provide to communities nationwide.
