Whitmore, vice president of
the African-American Cultural
Society on Guilford’s campus, sees
the program as some good expo
sure to diversity.
"Any program that
would sponsor sister
hood among African-
American women has
to be good in any
community..."
-McKissick-Melton
"This is a new step for me,"
Whitmore said. "I have usually
worked within the black commu
nity — only."
Whitmore said that one
of her goals fw the program is to
take Guilford out of its isolation
and involve it with the general
Greensboro community.
She said that Sister-to-Sister will
eventually include other area col
leges including Greensboro Col
lege, and North Carolina A & T
State University.
"Any program that would spon
sor sisterhood among African-
American women has to be good
in any community, especially in
Guilford county," saidCharmaine
McKissick-Melton, an assistant
professor in the Mass Communi
cations, Speech and Theatre De
partment .
"There is some real value in all
women getting together on real
issues."
Jamila McFarlane, a junior busi
ness administration major from
New York said, “I believe it is
great to get the women of Guilford
and Bennett together to discuss the
issues of social injustice and rac
ism. But it [Sister-to-Sister]
shouldn’t be limited to African-
American women because all
women experience some type of
social or racial injustice.”
Like the recent WLI town meet
ings, the Sister-to-Sister sessions
will take place in one of the dorms.
"The town meeting chat [in
Barge Hall parlor] was really
good," said Niacani Jefferson, busi
ness administration Bennettfresh-
woman from Connecticut.
“The CHie I attended called
‘Women Leaders in Contempo
rary Society’ showed us that prob
lems from the past could be used to
resolve similar conflicts today.
“Another series of similar dia
logues dealing with any other dif
ferent issues for women of the dif
ferent colleges will no doubt be
really good," Jefferson said.
