While we are a few days late, we are always with the Nupes here at MadameNoire. Kappa Alpha Psi was founded on January 5, 1911. Born in an environment saturated with racism on the campus of Indiana University by ten visionary Black men determined to cultivate achievement, leadership, and brotherhood at a time when Black excellence was being actively suppressed. What Elder Watson Diggs, Byron K. Armstrong, John M. Lee, Henry T. Asher, Marcus P. Blakemore, Guy L. Grant, Paul W. Caine, George W. Edmonds, Ezra D. Alexander, and Edward G. Irvin built has lasted 115 years, and counting, is both honorable and courageous considering the racial climate.
Now we know the ladies love the suave and debonair men of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity. The way they step and twirl their canes. Oh, and that shimmy! My God TUHDAY! Boosie said “Wipe Me Down” was not for the Nupes, but we are not so sure because they are definitely on in every way! The men of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity incorporated collectively and individually personify their charge, “achievement in every field of human endeavor.”
