this is one of the most powerful documentaries i have ever seen. the KKK are still alive and well, but people are generally so sick of hearing about it that they slip under the radar. they should really show this documentary in schools, it's unbelievable. i'm pretty used to watching documentaries on depressing subjects, but i cried for the whole second half of this one. sooo wrong... the mind boggles.

Ku Klux Klan: A Secret History

A part of American history for over a century, the Ku Klux Klan is a testament to the hostilities that surround the heterogeneity of the American nation. Waxing and waning in popularity over the decades, the Klan is the proverbial phoenix, rising from the ashes to gain membership and popularity when it seems to be extinguished. This History Channel documentary chronicles the history of the Klan, from its inception as a political organization trying to cope with the realities of emancipation and the defeat of the South in the Civil War to the modern-day Klan, which continues its legacy of hate and violence under the banner of Americanism and Christianity. Ku Klux Klan: A Secret History would be useful for classes on American History, African-American History, Political Science, Civics and Ethics. It is appropriate for middle school and high school.

Note to Educators Ku Klux Klan: A Secret History contains some graphic images and language that might be inappropriate for younger viewers.

me too.. you'd think ignorant southerners would be able to unify more efficiently. Especially when it comes to killing those wretched coloured folk and all. Hyuck.

Down with racism; up with free cookies, says I.

Not sure if I saw it in law class or on A&E b ut yea they were showing it agaion on Monday.

How about the young kids of the KKK. Can't believe they are taught to grow up hating everyone but the white race.

yea, that shit was unbelievable. soooooo widespread and powerful.

i kind of wish they covered the satanic angle a little bit more. the furthest that they got was mentioning that that cannibal governor of indiana was 'a charlatan'.

as wack as the KKK are, the lower level guys are all being suckered by satan too. it doesn't alleviate their guilt, but i think it would help people take the elite's satanic practises a little more seriously.

i wish they had covered albert pike too... that guy is FUUUUUCKED! he was head of the KKK and head of freemasonry at the same time. how messed up can you get!?
