Overview

Explore a vibrant, full-color introduction to the Divine Nine Black Greek Letter Organizations-created especially with Black and Brown youth in mind! Readers are guided through what fraternities and sororities are, why historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) matter, and how the National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) connects the Divine Nine. Each organization is introduced in a way that is easy for young readers to understand-highlighting its spirit, core values, and the kinds of work members do in their communities through expressive characters, familiar colors, and subtle details that will make Divine Nine members and supporters smile, while still being welcoming and engaging for children encountering these organizations for the first time. Instead of a dry history lesson, discover a living, breathing snapshot of culture, tradition, and pride-showing how Black Greek life has always been about scholarship, service, leadership, and community. Perfect for families, educators, youth workers, churches, and community organizations, ""Who Are We?"" is both a keepsake and a conversation starter that invites young readers to see the Divine Nine as a powerful legacy they can one day step into-continuing the fight for education, housing, food, justice, and collective rights.

A native of Chicago, her worldview was shaped in the orbit of powerful social justice voices-including Michelle Obama, the late Rev. Dr. Addie Wyatt, the late Rev. Dr. Willie Barrow, and the late Rev. Dr. Leon Finney-grounding her in a faith-centered approach to social change rooted in youth empowerment and collective liberation.

Her published writing continues her life's work and serves as a beacon of light for youth to see themselves in those who have walked in their path, as a blueprint to broaden their own vision of themselves and their futures. Joy Mitchell is a cultural storyteller, digital creator, and entrepreneur who specializes in turning big ideas into working systems. As founder of JV Mitchell Consulting (JVMC), Blaqmoji, and BeSpeak Spirit, she focuses on the operational, technical, and delivery side of working systems-building the structures, workflows, and managing the ""boots on the ground"" execution behind digital products and experiences that honor Black life across physical and digital spaces. A proud member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated Joy carries a deep respect for Black Greek legacy, service, and sisterhood. Black stories should not only be imagined-they should be structured, delivered, and preserved in ways that last.
