What is skeeyee?

Skeeyee is a vocal call and response, primarily associated with members of the sorority Alpha Kappa Alpha (AKA). It's a distinctive and spirited expression used to show enthusiasm, sisterhood, and pride in the organization.

The "skee-wee" sound itself has variations in pitch and length depending on the chapter and the context. It's not just a sound, but a symbol of shared experience and belonging within the sorority. The meaning isn't rigidly defined, allowing for it to express a wide range of emotions from joy to solidarity. It's often used at gatherings, events, and celebrations to create a sense of unity and camaraderie. While its origins are specific to AKA, its use and recognition have spread in some circles within Black Greek Letter Organizations (BGLOs). It can also be used to identify fellow sorority members.
