Is it clear from this that the Georgia lodge objects to this particular member because he is black? Or are there other grounds? Is it his “blackness” that is at issue?
"Most Worshipful Brother F. Ray Jackson, Grand Master of Masons in Georgia, sir:
What about Georgia? When will the Grand Lodge of Georgia accept black Masons as Masons?
When will we overcome the shackles of our own minds and actually live up to the Masonic tenets of the Brotherhood of All Mankind?
When will the rest of the Masonic world stop laughing at what they think of (and rightly so) as the good ol' redneck racist boys down south?
I and countless other Masons in good standing call upon you, the "elected" leader of Masons in Georgia, to stop the racism. Don't hide behind the supposed need for committees and discussions and votes at some Grand Lodge communication five years from now. If you can excommunicate Masons with the stroke of a pen like you and your predecessor Bro. Garner did last year with his edict, you, sir, can recognize Prince Hall Masons with a simple edict as well.
Yeah, many Georgia Masons will be unhappy. Some may even hate you for it. Some may fume and fret and threaten to never attend Blue Lodge again. So what?"
I’m starting my own lodge of Free and Accepted General Contractors. We are way better than the plumbers and masons.
Blacks should not be allowed. That’s why they have Prince Hall Lodges.
