I am told that the Knights of Columbus was founded in part because the Freemasons and the Catholic Church didn't get along, and thus Italian Americans could not generally join the Freemasons. Columbus was picked as an Italian who was important in America's history, to make it seem both Italian and American. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knights_of_Columbus#Early_year... |
