On this day 10 years ago, December 19, 2015, the Charlotte MALIKs and MALIK South were born at the . Since our inception, our accolades have been many… including several Shabazz (Graduate) Chapter of the Year awards, Sigma Awards for Community Service and Social Justice, a Dave Nelson Award, and hosting an Indaba (National Convention). But what we’re most proud of is that for a decade, we’ve stood on purpose— 1) uplifting our community through free cultural awareness, health awareness, and other educational events centered on the African and Latino diaspora, 2) developing leaders that have gone on to serve our brotherhood at the regional and national levels and in our community in some our most important local and regional nonprofit organizations, and 3) strengthening the bonds that connect us beyond letters. As we go forward in the next year, we’ll be celebrating 10 years of strong brotherhood, leadership, and community impact.
So many MALIKs played an instrumental role in bringing MALIK Fraternity, Inc. , the first fraternity founded on the concept of African Fraternalism, to Charlotte. We honor the brothers that planted the seeds and watered them with great intention.
Additionally, we extend a very special tribute to our firsts, our founding members - , , and for braving the path and laying the foundation, as well as their Jafaru, , Haruni .quire_official, and Personals without whose unwavering dedication and commitment none of this would be possible.
Happy 10-Year MALIKaversary to all Charlotte MALIKs. To the ones who carried the torch, and those who will take us into the next chapter. Here’s to the work done, the legacy built, and the future ahead. 10 years down. Forever to go. ✊🏾
