Mu Sigma Lambda Chapter
Mu Sigma Lambda Chapter was established in Baldwin Hills / Culver City, California on September 23, 1977, by 14 Honorable Black Men of the Greater Los Angeles area, affectionately known as The Audacious 14. Today, we are famously known as “The Baldwin Hills Alphas” – serving a community overlooking the Los Angeles Basin and the lower plain immediately to the north. Baldwin Hills is bordered on the southeast by Los Angeles’ Leimert Park neighborhood, on the south by View Park – Windsor Hills, on the west by Culver City, on the north by the Los Angeles Mid-City district, and the east by the Crenshaw district. We, the brothers of Mu Sigma Lambda with God’s guidance and the spirit of fellowship, proclaim our intent to manifest in our actions, our desire to promote the forward progress of every brother. To lend to every brother all the direction, support and enthusiasm he needs to succeed in his quest. Bearing in mind at all times that we are first about Brotherhood.
