"Powerful words. It is sad to remmeber that the original copy of the e Declaration of Independence included a manifesto against slavery, and that manifesto was removed. We could have started as a country of liberty and justice for all men (and worked toward that for women). Instead, abolitionists had to fight for years and years. BUT I love the juxtaposition of this memorial right next to the July 4. 1775 memorial of Washington assembling the first military for what would be the USA. It feels fitting."
"This set of five granite plaques placed in a semicircle honors the founder of the first Masonic Lodge for Black Americans. Prince Hall led the free Black community in Boston through his support for education and abolition. Beginning in 1775, Hall and fifteen other Black men joined the Masons but did not receive their own club, African Lodge #459, until 1784. This lodge began a new branch of the Masons, which is called Prince Hall Masonry to this day."
