VIRTUAL TALK: “The Craft” with John Dickie
February 1, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
THE CRAFT: How the Freemasons Made the Modern World
Insiders call it the Craft. It was founded in London in 1717. Within two decades, it had spread across the globe. Today, its members number six million worldwide, over a million in the United States alone. It is one of the most famous, most influential and most misunderstood of all secret brotherhoods. And, at times, it has been the most feared. It is Freemasonry. And this centuries-old story has a cast straight out of the history books. Under George Washington, the Craft became a creed for the new American nation. Under Napoleon, it became a tool of authoritarianism and then a cover for revolutionary conspiracy. Both the Mormon Church and the Sicilian mafia owe their origins to Freemasonry. From Winston Churchill and Walt Disney, to Buzz Aldrin and Benjamin Franklin, to Duke Ellington and the Duke of Wellington, John Dickie’s “The Craft” explores a movement that not only helped forge modern society but has substantial influence today.
