Malik Sigma Psi also known as 'Malik Fraternity" is a college fraternity founded in May 13, 1977 at CW Post in Long Island University for men of color. Rather than refer to themselves as being black greeks, they prefer African Fraternalists. It was formed under a new conscious belief for men of color as well as African Fraternalism. The group's name partially comes from the Swahilli name of Malcolm X. The group had originally used an all Swahilli name but was forced to change it because or the college requirements at the school that all fraternities have at least two greek letters in its name. The fraternity was founded by 15 men of color. Several of the founder of the fraternity were of latin descent.
