I see a lot of talk on here about clandestine masonry and even heard one Bro say if they do not have a charter they are not my Bro!!! How are you supposed to be sounding right now?
I guarantee you the European Freemasons that we try so hard to emulate do not speak in that manner. Negro Masons like Negro everything else has become quite efficient at self-destruction, self-annihilation, and self intolerance. Until I embarked on the journey of truly understanding the mysteries and beautiful art behind what it is we do my understanding of masonry was limited to how the
greeks view their fraternities, at that time to me it was matching jackets, car emblems, and social functions. Some of yall Prince Hall Affiliate Bros are caught up in arrogance that is misplaced. It's misplaced because no one has bothered to teach you the real history of the Prince Hall lodge. The NGL did not split or decent from PHA, members left the NGL to start sovereign GLs which is the real reason black masonry went unrecognized for so long, but that is really not the point of my post just a fact I wanted to point out. The point is what makes a good Mason a good mason. I have recently healed over to PHO, and I can tell you this much I had never seen the love, willingness to train, and cable tow like was extended from these Bros. The organization I left after I was raised, took months to get a few weeks to get a dues card, took months to get the certificate. Communication, instruction, was minimum, and I was a newly raised mason needing guidance. In the NGL, Bros came down from another city to oversee my healing over, presented me with not only a travel card but training and ritual material, communications, etc. So let's kill the politics, all that matters in the end is whose doing the work and whose not!! Our enemies don't give a f##$$ about your mainstream recognition.
