Reply to comment by enderandrew42 in eli5: What are freemasons and why are there so many conspiracies about them? by SovietCyka756

Do you have to be white to be a Freemason? Is there racism in each chapter?

You don't have to be white. Racism is anathema to all of our beliefs but with any large organization there are individually racist members.
