AMERICAN MASONS WHO SHAPED THE WORLD

IN THE MID- TO LATE- 20TH CENTURY, OUR COUNTRY’S MASONS LED THE WAY FOR LASTING CHANGE

Following World War II, the final century of the second millennium heralded new technologies, communications platforms, and cross-cultural awareness. It was also a time of landmark political and social events, including rebuilding countries decimated by the war, a national movement for African-American civil rights, and the rise and fall of the Cold War. These are some of the American Masons who made an indelible imprint upon this period of time – and whose influence continues to resonate within our lives today.
