Springfield Alphas Stand in Unison with the National Condemnation against false claims regarding Haitian Migrants

Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. strongly condemns the U.S. Republican Presidential nominee’s recent false and derogatory allegations that Haitian migrants are eating pets in Springfield, Ohio. 

His false statements during the U.S. Presidential debate and prior continue to perpetuate harmful stereotypes and racist tropes about Haitians and other migrant communities that are intended to stoke fear, divisiveness, hatred, and possibly violence at their expense.

This is particularly offensive for us since our General President-elect Brother Lucien J. Metellus, Jr., and several Fraternity members living in the United States are of Haitian descent as well and we have a chapter, Tau Beta Lambda Chapter, seated in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
