Description
by Harold Van Buren Voorhis (Author)
""Our Colored Brethren: The Story Of Alpha Lodge Of New Jersey"" is a historical account of the first African American Masonic lodge in New Jersey, written by Harold Van Buren Voorhis. The book details the founding of Alpha Lodge in the early 20th century and the challenges faced by its members in a society that was still deeply segregated. It explores the role of the Masonic fraternity in providing a space for Black men to come together and support each other, as well as the ways in which Alpha Lodge contributed to the broader struggle for civil rights. Through interviews with past and present members, as well as archival research, Voorhis paints a vivid picture of the lodge's history and its impact on the local community. Ultimately, ""Our Colored Brethren"" is a testament to the resilience and perseverance of the men who founded Alpha Lodge and the many others who have carried on its legacy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
