14. Ah the Boule

Was founded in Philadelphia at the turn of the last century by four young men. My Grandfather was a member of both this and Bachelors & Benedict.

Some say the Boule was and is a secret society. It's highly selective with approximately 5K members - by invite only. My father was also a member. Fraternity and Community is key. When you dig into who REALLY funded the Civil Rights movement - you don't have to go beyond this group to find where the money came from.

You know - that poster . . . I bet he thinks there was no segregation in the North and no KKK either above the Mason Dixon line. Or that every Black American is poor. Or that . . . I could go in and on.

How sad that our group had this intruder. We should start with *prove it* when extreme leftists start talking about the proletariat. In the meantime - they are gone from the group. Please don't let a person who has that snide pat us on the head and give us a cookie ruin this group.
