Did you know that Wanda Sykes is a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc?
This is true! Wanda Sykes joined the sorority through it’s Gamma Theta chapter in the Fall of 1986 at the HBCU Hampton University. She crossed the same year as Vice President Kamala Harris.
Sykes has put in a lot of work over the years. She is an African-American actress, comedian, and writer. Sykes starred in Pootie Tang, a movie that The Shadow League “calls one of the most criminally under-appreciated comedies of all time.” She earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing from Hampton University. Comedy Central has ranked her among the top 100 Stand Up comedians of all time.
