There are three regular Masonic Grand Lodges in Texas. The Grand Lodge of Texas AF&AM and the Texas Prince Hall Grand Lodge. This is the result of hundreds of years of segregation between black and white Masons. In 2005, both grand lodges signed a pact agreeing to recognize each other as regular freemasonry. This is a first step toward full communication between the two grand lodges. These steps are slow and difficult because over the years both have developed independently of each other and in some cases have significant differences in their organization, rules, regulations, bylaws and ritual. Currently, only the Grand Lodge of Texas AF&AM is recognized by the mother lodge, the United Grand Lodge of England. Both grand lodges are working toward full recognition of both. and there is the Regular Grand Lodge of Texas F&AM who is recognized by the Regular Grand Lodge of England (2005) and has treaties with over 41 countries.The Regular Grand Lodge of Texas boast of its ability to attract and allow all races to become members.

Michael Jackson was never a member of a Masonic Lodge. As an interesting aside, his personal physician (Dr. Conrad Murray) was a member of an irregular body claiming to be Masonic. His affiliation with a Lodge constituted under the "United Most Worshipful Scottish Grand Lodge of Texas" means that he is not considered a Freemason by any Mason except those in this "Grand Lodge", whose reach extends only to the Houston, TX city limits.
