The New Underground

A secret society commonly referred to as “The New” also spelled “The NU”, which originated in New York City in the year 1902. Originally started as a fraternity for disaffected scientists, the fraternity quickly became a collective of the most influential men in the country, founding chapters in Boston in 1903, Washington D.C. in 1905, and Chicago and LA in 1906. The fraternity is known to advocate elitist and aristocratic ideals, promoting the belief that intellectually gifted and “high-born” men have a responsibility to govern the less gifted for the benefit of humanity. The organization appealed to intellectuals throughout the country by providing substantial funding and resources to those who joined the fraternity, and publicly smearing and discrediting those who clung to more egalitarian beliefs. The fraternity gained notoriety during the events surrounding the Tunguska Seven’s discovery of the Tunguska Project. It is widely speculated that efforts to challenge and discredit the Tunguska Seven were organized and funded by The New Underground.
