The first historically-Black fraternal organization was the Prince Hall Freemasonry and dates back to the late 18th century. Other fraternities followed suit, such as Sigma Pi Phi, which is non-collegiate and is also known as The Boulé, established in 1904; as well as the first, African-American collegiate one, Alpha Phi Alpha, formally established as a fraternity in 1906, at Cornell University. The earliest sororities include Alpha Kappa Alpha, established in 1908 at HBCU, Howard University; and Delta Sigma Theta, founded in 1913, also at Howard University, and celebrating its centennial this year. More on these and other Pan-Hellenic groups, later in the montH. African-American fraternal organizations were formed with an emphasis on public service and civil rights.
During The American Revolution, Prince petitioned for Blacks to be able to fight for the Colonies. He was denied. However, A proclamation from England guaranteed Blacks that if they enlisted in the British Army, instead of the Continental Army, they would be freed at the end of the war.Only after the British Army began to use Blacks in their troops did the Continental Army change its decision to block admission of Blacks into the military.
" I am not inclined to mettle in the matter. I took my obligations to White men, not to Negroes. When I have to accept Negroes as brothers or leave Masonry, I shall leave it."
Albert Pike

Q Research General #7832: Glorious Fallout Edition
Publisher of iconic black magazines Ebony and Jet which at their 90s peak had a monthly circulation of two million files for bankruptcy
John H. Johnson founded the company in 1942 when he launched Negro Digest
The magazine summarized newspaper articles about black life and culture
Key to the company's growth was Ebony magazine, which was founded in 1945
The average monthly circulation of Ebony was around 2m for a time in the 1990s
Jet magazine played a powerful role in the black civil rights movement in 1955
It published a photograph of the open coffin of police violence victim Emmett Till
The imagine helped galvanize a generation of civil rights protesters in the U.S.
Ebony was sometimes criticized for focusing too much on successful people
'It has inspired them to be successful by showing examples of blacks who have made it,' Johnson said, in an interview in 1992
Johnson Publishing Co's fortunes began to decline after Johnson died in 2005
In 2014, Jet ceased print editions and became a digital-only publication
In 2016, Ebony and Jet were sold to Clear View Group, an equity firm in Texas
A historic Chicago publishing house responsible for some of the most culturally significant magazines within the black community has filed for bankruptcy.
Johnson Publishing Co., former owner of Ebony and Jet magazines, which at their height in the 90s had a monthly circulation of two million and helped tackle negative stereotypes of black people in the U.S., filed for liquidation on Tuesday.
The company said it was 'caught in a tidal wave of marketplace changes and business issues which, despite exhaustive efforts, could not be overcome.'
In recent times, the company has struggled financially following a number of issues including the loss of a major retailer that carried its Fashion Fair Cosmetics line, a 'costly recall' of products and competition from digital rivals, the company said.
John H. Johnson founded the company in 1942 when he launched Negro Digest with a $500 loan from his mother. The magazine summarized newspaper articles about black life.
But key to the company's growth was Ebony magazine, founded in 1945 and patterned after Life magazine, one of the nation's leading magazines at the time.
The average monthly circulation of Ebony was around 2 million for a time in the 1990s, making it the largest magazine catering to blacks.
Advertisers were initially reluctant to display their products in black-oriented publications because of concerns on how they would be perceived by other customers if they were seen as catering to blacks.
The company overcame those fears by building on personal relationships and bringing perspective advertisers to the company's offices, Johnson officials said.
Ebony was often criticized for focusing too much on successful people. In a 1992 interview, Johnson said he believed Ebony has made an important contribution to black people.
'It has inspired them to be successful by showing examples of blacks who have made it,' Johnson said.
However, Ebony and Jet also addressed social issues affecting black America.
Jet became a legendary part of the civil rights movement in 1955 when it published a photograph of the open coffin of Emmett Till, which showed the effects of the fatal beating the 14-year-old Chicago boy suffered at the hands of white men in Mississippi for allegedly whistling at a white woman.
'Johnson Publishing Company is an iconic part of American and African American history since our founding in 1942, and the company's impact on society cannot be overstated,' the company said in Tuesday's statement.

>>2469219 "There is also a Boule' membership book with some very interesting names. Out of the list there are members such as, Dr. Daniel Hale Williams - performed 1st open heart surgery; Ralph Bunch - former UN Ambassador; Arthur Ashe; Urban League President, Whitney Young; Martin Luther King, Jr.; Benjamin Mays; Carter G. Woodson; John H. Johnson; Maynard Jackson - ex-mayor of Atlanta (all who died never speaking of the Boule' and therefore taking the secrets of white supremacy with them); Baseball great Hank Aaron; Tom Bradley - tv personality; Dennis Archor - mayor of Detroit; Elvin Big 'E' Hayes; Bill Cosby; Jesse Jackson; Earl Graves; Douglass Wilder; ex-Steeler, Lynn Swann, and David Dinkins - ex-mayor of New York City, to name a few. Most Boule' members are of the "successful" group. As Cokely puts it, "Yes the Boule' is in your town!" Anywhere there are "prominent" professional blacks, chances are they're in the Boule'. Brother Cokely is the God that should be given biggup's to. His tireless dedication and research has allowed the masses of Afrikan people to know the truth of which the Boule' has pledged to never let you know. We have the roster up to 1994 which includes 101 chapters. It is now 1998, we haven't yet gotten the latest roster, but I'm sure there are quite a few more. Next piece, we will elaborate on the symbolism behind their logo, their colors, the origin of college fraternities and sororities and the close relation to demonic masonry. Continue to seek knowledge and we shall find."
