Being a Mason and having the honor to be a member of a Prince Hall Affiliated Jurisdiction (Minnesota), I think this is a great drive to see Prince Hall recognized with a memorial. I think this goes a long way towards giving honor where honor is due.
Brother Prince Hall was a Pioneer in many ways. He was the first man of African ethnicity to be made a Freemason in this country. He was the first man to successfully lead that body of Brothers in African Lodge # 459 that has birthed over 40 Jurisdictions that carry his name.
More importantly, he was a Pioneer in another way. Through his obvious tenacity to become acquainted with the mysteries of Freemasonry, he braved numerous obstacles and persevered in his quest.
