Heritage of Hate
During my mother's childhood, the family had to pick up and move in the middle of the night several times because the Klan was on the way. My grandfather was a Cherokee married to a white woman. My mother, now 89 with a memory full of holes, still recalled one of those nights of terror just yesterday.She will never forget, nor should we.
Symbols of horror
When I see images such as these, my daydreams of living in the '20s change to nightmares.
We just hate them what ain't like us
Read the wikipedia on this guy. He was a nasty piece of work.
Interesting
That Indiana now boasts the highest number of Klan members, with Ohio not far behind.
