Nope. Not about current political stuff but the Ku Klux Klan revival from roughly 1915-1944. Sure, there are various Klan groups today but it was the Klan of the 1920s that had millions of members and wielded considerable power and influence. Mercer Univ. press has this new publication on it which my library has and I just finished.
The 2nd version of the Klan was established with a cross burning on Stone Mountain which is near me. My grandfather, a prominent pharmacist in Athens, received a Klan recruitment letter about 1925. I know that because I have the letter. "Daddy never joined," my mother quickly said when shown the letter.
A few observations:
The Klan regalia and some rituals were balk knockoffs of the first blockbuster movie, a silent movie, "Birth of a Nation." The hooded garments, burning crosses and the like were straight from D. W. Griffiths.
The KKK was a huge moneymaker for a few leaders who personally pocketed a good chunk of membership fees. Consider it an early success story for modern marketing methods built off of the many fraternal organizations operating at the time.
Xenophobia was as much or more of a motivator for Klan membership surges as was racism.
Yes, a few Baptist preachers made the book but none, I daresay, anyone here ever heard of.
No one Fox ever named here is in the book but I'd bet he had ancestors who were Klansmen.
