Huffington Post writer Marc Lamont Hill took to Twitter to offer his thoughts on the controversial same-sex wedding ceremony where one of the grooms happens to be a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc.
Hill, a member of Kappa Alpha Psi, doesn’t know what all the fuss is about writing, “I’m surprised this is news. I know brothers in multiple frats who have married each other. Can’t wait until this isn’t a thing.”
“I love when people say ‘there are no gay people in my fraternity/ sorority/ chapter/ etc,’” he wrote. “Odds are, somebody who made u was gay.”
Kappa Alpha Psi member Nathaniel Gay and his partner Robert Brown held a crimson-and-cream themed ceremony on Saturday, Sept. 8 in Lexington, KY.
Brown took to Twitter to express his happiness over his marriage and shared video of his wedding ceremony.
“My wedding day….Robert + Nathanael 9.8.12,” he wrote.
”@SamChampion congrats on your engagement! just married my husband in kentucky!” he wrote.
Gay also shared his husband’s joy by sharing the video of his ceremony on his personal Twitter account. Gay even tweeted popular reality television star NeNe Leakes asking she could retweet his wedding.
”@NeNeLeakes can you retweet my wedding in honor?” he wrote.
The viral wedding video shows groom Nathaniel Gay with Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity brothers locking up and performing their signature “Yo” hand sign.
Robert Brown, who uploaded the wedding ceremony to his YouTube account, wrote on his channel, “perhaps because my husband is a kappa.”

Who is he supposed to be?
He may just know a lot of gay ppl…
He has to be gay lol. Gay men dont let straight ppl kno about their orientation. So he has to be on the inside
I thought that was Frank Ocean when I first saw the picture lol
gay people are everywhere. i think this story blew out of proportion because these men are kappas
I watch the podcast with hill and the gay fraternity men. Hill looked so flaming it was like school girls having a convo. then the gay men had the nerve to say they can pass for straight #Dead
o_O i’m done
who is this guy supposed to be?
This whole thing is giving straight kappas a bad name and I won’t stand for it.
O shut up, who are you fooling princess?
The whole bond of kappa is just too sweet
Kappa is about brotherhood. And not judging. Remember the principles of our organization. Our founders were discriminated against because of their color. So why would we do it to our own, because of their sex???? And I know a lot of straight Kappas, who embarrass us.
As A Kappa myself, and great great nephew of Ezra D. Alexander, one of the founders of our great organization. I am happy for my brothers who found love and support in each other. Our Frat was founded to create unity and a network among African American men, in a time when we had to deal with racism and segregation. So congrats to them. Allow them to live their lives.
Preach it and teach it, make ya fam proud
