Vaughn "Dap" Dunlap (Laurence Fishburne) is a politically conscious African American student at Mission College who leads anti-apartheid demonstrations encouraging students and school administrators to completely divest from South Africa; he is also feuding with Greek fraternal system member, Julian Eaves (Giancarlo Esposito) aka Dean Big Brother Almighty of Gamma Phi Gamma Fraternity, Incorporated. Meanwhile, Dap's younger cousin, Darrell (Spike Lee) aka "Half-Pint", is a Gamma pledge; the Gamma women's auxiliary, the Gamma Rays, battle with non-Greek fellow co-eds; and Dap's friends battle the locals.
