The Klu Klux Klan still exists today?
Sort of. The Klan went through three distinct phases. The first in the immediate aftermath of the Civil War, the second during the 'civil rights era' and is now in it's third phase.
There is no copyright on the name 'KKK' and pretty much any mug with a white sheet and an internet connection can found a chapter of the muckety-muck Knights of Christian Heritage or some such.
Unlike the 2nd phase Klan, there is no central organization, hardly any popular membership, and acts of violence are more or less insignificant from a LEO perspective.
Sure, keep an eye on them, but don't flatter them by giving them any significance at all.
And it must be added, that the Klan of today is NOT a "fourth phase".
Todays "klan" is made up of a few rednecks with a quart of beer & a sheet.
BTW do you know how to tell who is the undercover fed at the Klan meeting? He is the only one who can afford to pay his dues!
This is a very interesting thread. I had a professor in college who was an Afrikaner. He was an amazing man. But, he regretted the history of his people. He often made connections to the Boer War and the War for Southern Independence (His title). His oft repeated statement was, 'I'm from the side of the history writers and they've done a d@^n good job of shining their boots.'
talking about dutch sayings, "beter turks dan paaps" (better turkish than popish)
Why did we brush over so quickly in school.
I'd be interested to learn what non-US history most of you have studied at school.
