Opis

While America has undergone tremendous social change, the Ku Klux Klan has since the end of the Civil War kept alive the antiquated values - predicated on racism and religion - of white supremacism. Covering nearly a century of Klan ideology, this book examines the group's religious rhetoric in their songs and literature, from its heyday during the 1920s to 2014.
