The post, made by Ehize Felise Lee of TimeLee Travel & Tees, captioned, ‘We’re thrilled to see our Neo Soror actress @thedaniellebrooks enjoying herself at Club Delta! Her love for Delta was evident from a young age, and we are so proud to continue watering those seeds and supporting her throughout her lifetime.’ The exhilaration in the post was quite infectious, with hashtags like #57NationalConvention, while the cheer went, ‘Orange is the new RED!!’
Danielle responded in a heartfelt fashion, saying, ‘Going from a Delta Gem to an actual Delta has been one of the greatest gifts I could ever receive. Thank you sorors for embracing me the way you have this week. There’s nothing like a Delta Woman!!’ The comment section soon became bursting with loving messages as sisters welcomed her with mad love in phrases such as, ‘Welcome to DELTA LAND SOROR’ or ‘We love you, Soror Danielle! Oo-oop!’
An older member shared a flood of emotions: ‘I’m in real tears right now because I know how she’s feeling. I felt it 24 years ago when I came out to SIUE campus as a neo.’ Another wrote, ‘This is absolutely DEVASTATINGLY awesome!! And that DRAMATIC entrance from @therealbrandee and @thedaniellebrooks was everything!’
And the love continued to rightfully pour in: ‘We laughed and chatted at an impromptu meeting at an elevator. You were so lovely and kind. I can’t believe I now get to call you, Soror!!’ reminisced another.
Beyond the walls of Delta Sigma Theta, there was greeting and recognition from the fans and onlookers. One comment read, ‘Welcome to D9! I absolutely love when black women receive love from black women. There is nothing like it! It truly is healing for the soul.’
No amount of praising could end without acknowledging the induction for its parents and celebrities alike. Constantly speaking of public service and sisterhood, Delta Sigma Theta has in its ranks many celebrated women over the years. For Brooks, this is a full-circle celebration of her roots and these towering women that paved her path.
The energy was electric enough when a commenter brayed, ‘YAASSS!!!! Take it allllll in SOROR @thedaniellebrooks!!’
Before that night even got started, one could feel that this was nowhere near an ordinary celebrity moment but a very intimate celebration and rally. The love, the tears, the cries for ‘Oo-oop!’ all go to sisterhood existing to celebrate their existence.
