The Boulé, which in Ancient Greece was a “Council of Chiefs”, is the oldest continuously existing Greek-letter fraternity originally founded by, and primarily for, eminent American Black professional men and later similar professional men of African descent throughout the African diaspora. They all recognized that together they could accomplish things that could not be done individually. Some among them served at the pinnacle of their professions in colleges and universities and in high government posts. In 1904, they created an organization that would provide a vehicle for men of standing and similar tastes to come together to know the best of one another. On May 15, 1904, Sigma Pi Phi Fraternity was established in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania by six outstanding professional men of color: a pharmacist, a dentist, and four doctors, who had distinguished themselves in their community, but who were excluded from mainstream segregated American society.
