Earlier this month the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Inc. removed actor Malik Yoba from his position as a teen mentor after he was accused of soliciting underage trans prostitutes shortly after he publicly admitted that he was trans attracted [click here if you missed that].
Malik calls out Phi Beta Sigma for turning their backs on him and other gay members of the frat...
Malik tells The Breakfast Club,
“It’s very painful when you sit in this eye of the storm and people come for you. I’m talking about my fraternity—or my former fraternity —because I’m going to blow them up right now. Phi Beta Sigma. We had an executive director that was murdered like that young woman you’re talking about."
"He was gay. He was running for public office in Louisiana. Because we don’t have a culture, even within an organization like Phi Beta Sigma thats slogan is “Culture for Service and Service for Humanity." You have a gay leader who has to then go and live in the shadows, make poor choices based on that. And he was murdered like that young woman. No one stepped up as brothers."
"And so as I’ve gone through my storm recently, those brothers didn’t step up for me. They stepped away. And they publicly acknowledged that."
