Sorority Girl Celebrates 21st Birthday With Racist Three-Layer Cake
Here's a lovely photograph of a sorority girl from the University of Maryland celebrating her 21st birthday in the traditional way—with a fun, alcohol-themed cake that's piled with mini-bottles, Blue Moon, and shitty wine and adorned with the inscription "suck a nigga dick." Wait, what was that last thing again?
The racist cake, allegedly inspired by the Three Six Mafia track of the same name—and definitely not by the Lil Wayne line "suck a nigga dick for some Trukfit" (stop trying to make Trukfit happen, Weezy)—has already earned condemnation from the school's Greek Life department, the Black Student Union, and even the Delta Gamma Sorority.
The DGs threw the original poster of the photo under the bus in a Facebook post that attempted to distance the chapter from #suckaniggadickgate with as much haste as possible:
We have become aware of an unacceptable Instagram post by a member of our chapter. The Fraternity volunteers and staff are working with our chapter at the University of Maryland at this time to hold this member accountable. Delta Gamma Fraternity is a dynamic organization committed to diversity and does not discriminate on the basis of race, religious affiliation, color, creed, national origin, sexual orientation, marital status or physical disability. All efforts are in place to guarantee those selected for membership are committed to living our values. Delta Gamma stands for high ideals of friendship, promoting cultural and educational interests, a true sense of social responsibility and developing the best qualities of character.
The Instagram photo had 77 likes when the most-shared screenshot was taken. I can't imagine any of those were from Delta Gamma members, who epitomize social responsibility and quality of character. That would be absurd.
Incidentally, Delta Gamma at UMD is the same chapter that gave us Rebecca "Cunt Punt" Martinson, possibly the greatest composer of deranged email missives in the history of the U.S. sorority system.
It's nice(?) to see them carrying on the proud(?) tradition of using technology to make huge mistakes even huger.
