The Lit Brunch was a huge success! We had a steady crowd in and out with about 20-25 who came specifically for our event. In addition, we gave out a total of 50-75 candidate comparison packets to other patrons who were eating brunch but asked for information. We also had a couple of candidates stop in. It was a great day!
A reminder: Early Voting is underway NOW in Franklin County. Please go vote - every race on the ballot - and take 5 people with you! Supreme Court of Ohio races are critical.
Racism Is a Public Health Crisis…
- Voting Rights
- Law Enforcement & the Criminal Legal System
- The School-To- Prison Pipeline
All negatively impact the health of Black & Brown communities. Alpha Phi Alpha is committed to eliminating these systemic race-based inequities!
Join Alpha Phi Alpha Alpha Rho Lambda chapter, ETC by US, Rewriting The Narrative Inc., Columbus Can’t Wait Podcast, the Columbus Urban League of Young Professionals and the Black Men Voting Collective at Marvin’s Lounge for the second Lit Brunch, a non-partisan voting education party reinforcing the importance of casting a vote in every race on the ballot.
Election day is around the corner and some are saying this is one of the most important elections of this generation. We want to make sure that as voters turn out for early voting in late October and early November, that people understand all the parts of the ballot, and the urgency of filling it out TOP to BOTTOM.
Learn why it’s critical to complete your ballot from top to bottom, understand what the issues are, know what the candidates stand for, and ask all the questions that you need to make sure you are an informed voter by the time you hit the ballot box.
If you have an absentee ballot and need help filling it out, you can bring it too and get all of the assistance that you need.
There will be a DJ, full brunch menu, and specials to order from.
Contact Malcolm White (malcolm@etcbyus.com) or Camren Harris (Camren.harris1906@gmail.com) with any questions that you might have.

Last Saturday, our Jr. Esquire Academy participated in Workshop #2 at the Columbus City School for Boys.
The Jr. Esquires engaged in conversations of self-management/self-awareness. The overarching topic was “This is Me”, emphasizing the point that one should embrace their true selves.
Also fun team-building activities were had, including “Spaghetti Tower” where the young gentlemen were faced with the challenge of constructing a tower using spaghetti noodles and various materials such as tape and string, and “Face the Cookie” where a cookie is placed on one’s forehead and the goal is to get the cookie from one’s forehead to their mouth using ONLY facial muscle movements.
Ladies and gentlemen, we are officially BACK! Great food, great drinks, and great music as always!

A couple weeks ago Alpha Rho Lambda was able to host its first Julian Lewis Cookout since 2019! The pandemic caused a three-year drought, but to say it was a joy to bring the event back this year would be a supreme understatement!

This past Saturday we held our Alpha Esquires Induction Ceremony for the 2022-23 school year! We had an induction class of 29 high school young black males.
We strive to develop the youth into the leaders of tomorrow!

Today, Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. recognizes the often-ignored contributions of African American workers and working families. Though many may not know, Labor Day was founded after the Pullman Strike of 1894, when President Cleveland was hoping to gain political allyship by honoring railroad workers. While the story about the involvement of the Black Pullman porters in the labor movement is rarely told, African Americans remain an integral and critical part of the American labor force. Let’s not forget to pay homage to those who fought for us to enjoy the day with family and friends.

The Brothers of Alpha Rho Lambda 🤙🏾 and men all across the city joined together for the 2021 African American Male Wellness Walk! #aamww #AlphaColumbus
The African American Male Wellness Agency (AAMWA) was established in 2004 to begin the process of making men understand, through prevention, one can live longer. The awareness campaign is the largest wellness initiative of its kind in Central Ohio and has expanded to Mahoning Valley, Toledo, Cincinnati, and Cleveland Ohio. The wellness initiative has provided thousands of free health screening across the state of Ohio, resulting in recognition from President Obama and also by having August declared as African American Male Wellness Month by Governor John Kasich.
