The Black Elite is a fancy club for rich African Americans who want to show off and help their communities, but mostly so they can rub elbows with other rich Black folks while their kids get into posh colleges like Howard, Spelman, and Morehouse.
My cousin joined Jack and Jill so she could sip champagne while talking about how her kid got into Spelman.
I saw my uncle at a Jack and Jill event wearing a $500 suit and bragging about his kid's college essay.
My mom said she's part of Jack and Jill because it's 'more about the networking than the giving back.'
