I'm an African American community folklorist (and member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Gamma Zeta chapter, 1967) who happened upon this video while surfing YouTube for examples of BGLO stepping and/or chants which appear to have some military influences. I showcased this video and my transcription of the cadence chant on this post in my pancocojams cultural blog [this post's link added] <br /><br />I included a statement that this chant should not be performed by anyone who isn't a part of that organization. But I believe that for the historical and folkloric record, members of BGLOs should preserve and share some of what happens in our organizations with the public.<br /><br />Corrections of that transcript[ion] are very welcome."Azizi Powellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14963772326145910073noreply@blogger.com
