Since this all began as a private issue for me, and the rate at which it has ballooned since, it has become clear and concise that there is a serious problem at hand here. Right after having finished writing this the world witnessed a major terrorist attack in Norway, in which over one hundred lives of mainly children were lost. Most untrained eyes missed the blatant Scottish Rite 32nd Degree symbolic give-away on major network news as the many pictures of the terrorist were streaming on a slide show. This is a cult, this is a problem; these men are indoctrinating, controlling by fear, and making members feel like life outside the cult is bad. These are all proven psychological red flags of a cult, as any basic textbook will reference. Now I hear they are even encouraging and promoting arming members here in Texas via free concealed handgun courses, so now the cult is playing with weapons too. I have heard the audio of the Masonic Trial of another Brother, being tried for coming out of the closet, nothing more, and it is nothing but bigot after bigot taking the microphone and openly spewing hate crime inciting speech, so strongly I actually wept. I have watched countless African-American Prince Hall Masons be referred to as clandestine and not allowed to sit in our Lodge and the blatant disregard for women and disallowment in their ranks. In the times we live in, and with the blatant culture of lawlessness within the upper tier of the men with the top jobs, I shudder to think that more terrorist attacks or ritual abuses are going to occur because these men are drunk with power.

For as long as there have been Freemasons, there has been a calculated effort to disparage and their practices. In this insightful text, masons de Hoyos and Morris explore the origins of the anti-Masonic mindset and delve into the falsehoods on which critics have based these perennial sentiments. Confronting opponents one at a time, the authors methodically debunk the myths that have surrounded Freemasonry since its establishment, investigating the motives and misconceptions that derive antagonists to spread deceit about Masonic traditions.

The Second Ku Klux Klan’s success in the 1920s remains one of the order’s most enduring mysteries. Emerging first as a brotherhood dedicated to paying tribute to the original Southern organization of the Reconstruction period, the Second Invisible Empire developed into a mass movement with millions of members that influenced politics and culture throughout the early 1920s. This study explores the nature of fraternities, especially the overlap between the Klan and Freemasonry. Drawing on many previously untouched archival resources, it presents a detailed and nuanced analysis of the development and later decline of the Klan and the complex nature of its relationship with the traditions of American fraternalism.

In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Mexicans and Americans joined together to transform the U.S.-Mexico borderlands into a crossroads of modern economic development. This book reveals the forgotten story of their ambitious dreams and their ultimate failure to control this fugitive terrain. Focusing on a mining region that spilled across the Arizona-Sonora border, this book shows how entrepreneurs, corporations, and statesmen tried to domesticate nature and society within a transnational context. Efforts to tame a 'wild' frontier were stymied by labour struggles, social conflict, and revolution. Fugitive Landscapes explores the making and unmaking of the U.S.-Mexico border, telling how ordinary people resisted the domination of empires, nations, and corporations to shape transnational history on their own terms. By moving beyond traditional national narratives, it offers new lessons for our own border-crossing age.
