greetings all, ill try to make this short, i was introduced to masonry some 20 years ago, a young soldier in korea. I had the pleasure of working a lot of high level jobs during my tour. a civilian approached me about the fraternity, now knowing thats not how its done, but he was a ranking embassy official i had trust in. the lodge he entertained to me and 3 others wasnt even in existence. Ancient Orient lodge, sounded good after all i was in korea. he took our money, gave us a few papers and told us when we got state side we could get the rest of what we needed. excited to get home my grandfather and uncle both now deceased were masons. sadly my uncle told me there was no such lodge all the contact numbers we'd been given were no good. it crushed me and gave me a bitter taste on the group. so i got into motorcycles joined a fine club and have done great charity work thru the years. older now im looking to continue the works but hopefully thru legitimate masonry. im in alabama and the question lingers are black/african american men allowed to join a main stream lodge? or only Prince Hall. I work for a cement company and we have plants all over the world and id like to be able to meet and greet good brothers in every country. ive been on this site since mid november and like the honest answers given even in a case where some agree to disagree. thanks in advance.
God bless
