The Conference of Grand Masters of North America by the actions of the the 51 GL jurisdictions is a governing body over the 51 jurisdictions.
The CGMNA meet once a year the Grand Officers of the 51 jurisdictions attend and are the make up of the governing body of the CGMNA. This meeting only allows the Grand Officers, the SGIG'S, and Shrine Potentates to attend.
If a regular MM were to try to attend he would be barred.
As for the comment that the GL'S are healing over recognition of PH's there's still 10 jurisdictions that do not recognize PH's or allow African Americans to join. Yet they state the
UGLofA is not regular when they recognize PH's and allow African Americans to join. While there are 10 jurisdiction members who refuse to do the same. Alabama, Georgia. Mississippi, and South Carolina will NEVER admit PH's or African Americans to join. How can the members of the CGMNA keep looking the other way?????????
I have a REAL problem with GL's stating their is no authority above a jurisdiction when PALINLY there is. What goes on at these meetings and why are they secret? Who gives them authority to speak for Free-Masons?
