Alpha Kappa’s announcement by Alpha Sorority Inc. of its 2021 Honorary Members on July 15 caused a head scratching over one of its new members. The 113-year-old first black Greek letters organization for black American women shared the news on their official Twitter account.

“We are delighted to welcome 8 phenomenal women to Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority as Honorary Members: #UrsulaMBurns #RuthECarter @DebraMChase #CynthiaErivo, @LisaLeslie @RobinRoberts @TraceeEllisRoss and #AliceWalkerâ€, We read in the tweet.

News of the sorority’s new insiders has gone fairly well, with the exception of one problematic inductee. Social media shot at Nigerian-born, London-born actress Cynthia Erivo.

The internet would not let the organization or actress forget about their problematic statements about black Americans.

According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, tensions between black Americans and black diasporas has been gain momentum. As black Americans become more aware of what other groups are saying about their culture and icons, some are retaining control to protect a culture apparently not respected by other blacks.

Erivo did not respond.
