Episode Overview

Beneath their white hoods and flowing robes, the Ku Klux Klan stands as a symbol of domestic terrorism, cloaked in the very rights and freedoms they seek to undermine.

This episode delves into the KKK's nearly 150-year history, highlighting efforts to challenge its demands for segregation and white supremacy. Former Imperial Wizard Johnny Lee Clary reveals insider details about the Klan, including its secret handshakes, greetings, and underlying objectives.
