There'...You have barely scratched the surface. There's currently 39 different lodge buildings up in Harlem. There were more, but Alpha Grand Lodge lost their building at 125 & Madison not too long ago. There's also the lodge that Schomburg joined in El Barrio on the East Side, to say nothing of the Internationals and the multitude of lodges that stem from John G.

The only Legit Masonic Organization In Harlem is the MW Prince Hall GL of NY, located at 454 W 155th Street. Boyer Grand lodge of NY is now Boyer lodge #1, and is no longer titled as a Grand Lodge.

The gist of it is that they must be severely humiliated in order to gain entry, hence the woman's clothing. The crazy part is how they were all painfully bound together by the wrists.yojimbothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05184877040031801326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027893461039962419.post-66701487705812838992008-10-29T23:27:00.000-04:002008-10-29T23:27:00.000-04:00I'm assuming you weren't supposed to take that pho...I'm assuming you weren't supposed to take that photo of the initiation ceremony. Didn't know they "hazed" their initiates. Thought that was just a fraternity thing.
