Lona Currie and Eric McCoy evaluate the arguments by Christopher Barker, the Imperial Wizard of the North Carolina Ku Klux Klan. He identifies the KKK as a conservative, Christian organization which holds their truth within the King James Bible that the separation of races is required. We attempt to walk in his shoes and see if we can make sense of his arguments. We attempted to be fair to his arguments but only one thing, was I able to agree with based on facts and common sense. Watch this video to see which truth I was able to agree with.

Eric and Lona discuss this in a very logical, concrete, and creative way. This organization was founded in 1865. Yes, the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) extended into almost every southern state by 1870 and became a vehicle for white southern resistance to the Republican Party’s Reconstruction-era policies aimed at establishing political and economic equality for Black Americans. How did this organization become a part of the party of Lincoln? Do his arguments fit with facts or are they just agendas, a faulty belief system, or inaccurate dishonesty?
