20 years after the Civl War, save for a few rare instances of integration, Freemasonry across the country was still segregated into seperate black Prince Hall Lodges and causasian Blue Lodges. There was more recognition of black Prince Hall Freemasonry by the European grand lodges than there was from any white official Masonic body in the United States at this time. Particularly in the South, black Freemasons were not only up against an erasure of their Masonic charter by Southern white Masons but faced openly racist dehumanizing public deunciations from the highest white Masonic authorities in Mississipi and Missouri.

Some Prince Hall Freemasons expressed their abolitionist views using militant rhetoric pre-Civil War and others like Moses Dickson would claim he led an army of hudreds of thousands of slaves trained in secret to rise up against all slave owners. Organizations that were Freemasonic in nature but were paralell to Prince Hall like the International Order of Twelve Knights of Tabor had now grown to 100,000 members and other organizations like the Moorish Science Temple of America were about to emerge;

Robbie Martin using original Bohemian Grove yearly annals and other sources tells the story of how the Cremation of Care ceremony came to be and how they performed it for nearly 30 years before the arrival of the iconic giant owl statue. The first time the Cremation of Care was performed with a statue wasn’t of an owl, it was performed in front of a 75 foot tall statue of Buddha while the grove members dressed in red and white kimonos. Other activities are alluded to in their early documents like procuring prostitutes, smoking marijuana and bathing together naked. The early 1890s would mark the beginning of top level US government officials becoming a normal sight at Bohemian Grove campouts.

The simulated Cremation of Care ceremony in the intro [recreated by Robbie Martin] includes pieces from the following authentic original Bohemian Grove compositions from ‘The Sounds of Bohemia’ :

Beauty’s Vassals – Performed by the No Name Quartet and composed by Charles Hart recorded 1987. This more jovial vocal song was sometimes performed directly before Cremation of Care would begin.

Barcarole – Performed by the Owl Club Orchestra and composed by Charles Hart recorded 1930. This song was specifically composed to accompany the transportation of the human effigy (Care) to the funeral pyre (a tradition that became transportation by boat)

September 11th 20th Anniversary Part 1 of 2: The Return of the 9/11 Conspiracy Left, Restrategizing & Turning Over More Stones

Abby and Robbie Martin talk to independent researcher Gumby for a two-part 9/11 20 year anniversary Media Roots Radio special. In light of the Spike Lee controversy about his 9/11 HBO series, they discuss the history of all the prominent officials and Hollywood celebrities that spoke out and questioned the official story, and how that legacy has been whitewashed today. After taking listeners through how the early 9/11 truth movement reached a critical mass within anti-George W Bush liberalism, they reflect how activists could better strategize in lieu of the new opening of discussion around the attacks in 2021. In Part 2, all the media hype surrounding the 20th anniversary is discussed as is the inevitable backlash that came for 9/11 truthers within leftism itself.
