With names like Jackie Robinson, Martin Luther King Jr., Hank Aaron and many more, you think of icons that have changed the landscape of not only sports, but life as many people see it today. One name that we can also add to that list is Willie Jeffries who was a football player and coach within multiple different universities. More importantly, he was the first black coach to earn a head coaching job within a school that was predominantly white. From 1979 to 1983 he made huge steps in changing the racial dynamic in sports by not only coaching at Wichita state, but winning at Wichita State. Prior to Jeffries, many black coaches were either unable to get a coaching job within a white school or were very limited in the coaching role that they

Bloodlines of the Illuminati

...Bloodlines of Illuminati by: Fritz Springmeier, 1995 Introduction: I am pleased & honored to present this book to those in the world who love the truth. This is a book for lovers of the Truth. This is a book for those who are already familiar with my past writings. An Illuminati Grand Master once said that the world is a stage and we are all actors.

The people of the world are an audience to which the Illuminati entertain with propaganda. Just one of the thousands of recent examples of this type of acting done for the public was President Bill Clinton’s 1995 State of the Union address. The speech was designed to push all of the warm fuzzy buttons of his listening audience that he could. All the green lights for acceptance were systematically pushed by the President’s speech with the help of a controlled congressional audience. The truth on the other hand doesn’t always tickle the ear and warm the ego of its listeners. The light of truth in this book will be too bright for some people who will want to return to the safe comfort of their darkness. I am not a conspiracy theorist. I deal with real facts, not theory. Some of the people I write about, I have met. Some of the people I expose are alive and very dangerous. The darkness has never liked the light. Yet, many of the secrets of the Illuminati are locked up tightly simply because secrecy is a way...
