Those who cho ose to denounce these groups argue that organizational loyalties\, rituals \, and symbols conflict with their religious faith. Over the past few year s\, the Divine Nine have become the subject of a robust debate among Black Christians about what it means to have loyalty to Christ today. Others ar gue "The Divine Nine" shaped American culture in the 20th century and that individuals and groups are attacking Black institutions\, specifically th e institution of the Black Greek organization.\n\n \n\nJoin Dr. Reverend K enneth I. Clarke\, Sr.\, Riche Richardson\, Chair of the Africana Studies Department at Cornell University\, and Greg Parks\, Professor of Law at Wa ke Forest University for this discusiion on "The Divine Nine".\n\n \n\nThe Divine Nine include nine leading traditionally African American fraternit ies and sororities: Alpha Phi Alpha\, Kappa Alpha Psi\, Omega Phi Psi\, Ph i Beta Sigma\, Iota Phi Theta\, Alpha Kappa Alpha\, Delta Sigma Theta\, Ze ta Phi Beta\, and Sigma Gamma Rho.
