Theos-Talk Archives (April 2000 Message tt00000)

Dear Bob:

You have raised a very interesting question of much interest to many theosophists. I am posting it on theos-l and theos-talk so that we may get some discussion going.

MKR,

Thanks, I appreciated your tidbit on Theosophy and I think that Krishnamurti WAS ahead of the curve.

I think it was/is admirable that a second but equal meeting was held but Krishnamurti would have had a difficult time in certain parts of our country.

What I would like to know is the status of Hispanics and Afro-Americans in the rest of the Theosophical lodges and centers thorough-out the good old USA during those times, say, 1875 - 1960's. I haven't read nor have I heard the how Theosophical Society treated "Hispanics and others" during those early years. 

What did HPB, WQJ and HSO have to say about all this stuff? How did the "form a nucleus" impact on their behaviors? How could HPB and WQJ live during that period and not have ANY comments?
