Ku Klux Klan- A Secret History [8/9]

Since the days following the Civil War, the Ku Klux Klan has preached a gospel of hate, intolerance and exclusion. But while it has attracted members who number in the millions at times, it has also repeatedly been battered into near-submission by activists, the government and changing public opinion.

THE 20TH CENTURY(TM) ventures back to the days of the Reconstruction South and through the landmarks in Klan history to tell the complete story of the most famous hate group in America. Discover how the six original Klansmen came together and chose their name. See how the release of America's first blockbuster movie spurred a resurgence in the KKK and how they expanded their target to include Jews, Catholics and immigrants as well as blacks. Examine the tactics of Klan leaders like William Joseph Simmons and David Duke. And, finally, find out how the Klan has repeatedly battled back from the brink of extinction. Filled with rare and often disturbing footage as well as extensive interviews with, Klan experts, past and present members and reporters, THE 20TH CENTURY(TM) presents a comprehensive history of the Ku Klux Klan.

@6:49,

These victims were not innocent people, but were and still are putting millions of innocent people in slave labor camps and forcing them to cannibalism. Perhaps it was self-defense. Free speech works: let all these guys speak and then they'll fight it out and kill each other.

@metathus Currently, the African American society is currently in a self fulfilling prophesy where thier stereotype is strong. Alot of them are raised to be drug dealers, and street gang members. It is because their environment "the ghetto" forces many of them to take on the stereo type. It goes the same for most white supremisists. They grow up in a society that encourages them to do what they do now.

@metathus Only on average whites are more "intellegent" because they live in an organized society with proper living conditions so that they can advance. Whites have a longer family line that runs in such a society so that they can pass down their knowledge through the generations. Blacks have lived in the white society for only a few centuries and haven't had much knowledge to pass down, but as time goes by they will soon reach where whites around several decades to a few centuries.
