A Party to Exterminate Free Masonry and Civil Rights Law
Civil rights law in Louisiana enforces penalties for denying equality at public venues. Noted cases include Jockey Club race seating disputes and a Bidwell Academy of Music suit where Judge Lynch ruled against segregation, citing Thirteenth Amendment and Enforcement Act violations. Coverage also discusses Northern anti secret society actions, politics around Texas-Louisiana migrations, and reflections on white population shifts shaping regional power.
