What is the Illuminati? The Illuminati is a secret society that was founded on May 1, 1776 . This was known as the Bavarian Illuminati. The goal of the Illuminati was to eliminate superstition, prejudice, and the Roman Catholic Church’s domination over government, philosophy, and science; reduce abuse of state power, support the education and treatment of women as intellectual equals . Throughout time the Illuminati has undergone a change of philosophy. There are many examples in pop culture and in government symbols. The Illuminati now focuses on dominating the government and the entertainment industry.
Some of the most prominent symbols of the Illuminati are the Pyramids, the All Seeing Eye of Horus, El Diablo, the Pentagram, the Eternal flame, the Skull and Bones, Obelisk, and the Nazi salute . You can see these symbols used in pop culture today. Many famous singers, world leaders, and people that we look up to, flash these signs. You may not know what they mean but if you look more closely you can see how they all connect. These people know that they have large groups of people that follow them, so they use these signs to help spread their popularity. But what if there is another reason for all these signs? What if all the signs are part of the secret society known as the Illuminati?

  • The Mafia

    1432 Words  | 3 Pages

    The Mafia is a secret criminal organization that has great economic and political control over large parts of Sicilian society and operates both criminal and legitimate enterprises in the United States. It is believed to have started during Sicily's late Middle Ages, beginning as separate bonds of strong-arm enforcers hired by local landowners. It eventually evolved into a network of independent groups governing in rural areas. With the Sicilian immigration of the late 19th century, the Mafia began to operate in several large United States cities. During the period of Prohibition it monopolized the trade in bootleg liquor and controlled loan sharking, gambling, and prostitution. Competing Mafia families established mutually recognized territories, reaching agreement by negotiation or by intimidation. By the mid-1930 the Mafia had taken on the institutionalized structure that is now typical of organized crime in the United States.

  • The Black Jacobins

    The San Domingo revolution led to the abolition of slavery, independence of Haiti from France and the proclamation of a black republic. However, unlike many historians, CLR James in his work, The Black Jacobins, does not depict the struggle for independence as merely a slave revolt which happened to come after the French Revolution. He goes beyond providing only a recount of historical events and offers an intimate look at those who primarily precipitated the fall of French rule, namely the black slaves themselves. In doing so, James offers a perspective of black history which empowers the black people, for they are shown to actually have done something, and not merely be the subject of actions and attitudes of others.

  • Mafia

    Mafia. What does this word mean? The actual members of the Mafia aren’t even sure where the word first originated or what it really means. One of the theories as to where the word came from is from Sicily, where people would yell “ Morte alla Francia, Italia anela!” (Death to France, Italy groans!), therefore forming the acronym MAFIA. Others claim the word derived from the battle cry of rebels who slaughtered thousands of Frenchmen after a French soldier raped a Palermo woman on her wedding day. Their slogan echoed her mother’s cry, “Ma fia, Ma fia” (my daughter my daughter). There are other less “glamorous” stories as to where the word originally formed. The most likely reasoning says that it came from the Arabic word mahias, meaning bold man. The American Mafia has become infamous due to its leaders, its method of operation, and its impact on the economy through illegal means.
