Ihr denkt doch bei #KKK auch an eine rassistische, mordende #Bewegung, oder?

Diana Butler Bass comments on Timothy Egan's book A Fever in the the Heartland: The Ku Klux Klan’s Plot to Take Over America, and the Woman Who Stopped Them. One thing stood out as she read it:

"It reveals how easily white pastors and churches were enlisted by the Klan, and that 'goo'” Protestant church people knowingly — and willingly — chose to hate their Black, Jewish, and Catholic neighbors."

Today in Labor History August 28, 1955: Teenager Emmett Till was brutally murdered on this day in Money, Mississippi, for speaking "inappropriately" to a white woman. The brutality of the murder and the lack of justice for his family helped to mobilize opposition to segregation in America. An all-white jury acquitted Till’s killers, Roy Bryant and his half-brother J. W. Milam. The next year, both men publicly admitted in an interview with Look magazine that they had tortured and murdered the boy. The magazine paid them selling $4,000 (equivalent to $43,000 in 2022) for the story. Between 1876 and 1930, over 500 African Americans were lynched in Mississippi, alone, and over 3,000 across the South. A memorial marker for Emmett Till, erected in 2006, was defaced with "KKK", and then completely covered with black paint. 8 more markers were erected at sites associated with Till's lynching in 2007. Some of these were vandalized, too. One of the signs received over 100 bullet holes. In 2018, three University of Mississippi students were suspended from their fraternity after posting to Instagram a photo of them posing in front of the bullet-riddled marker, with guns.

The media pretends that #MAGA @GOP are STILL Republicans. Their corporate profit can make them do little else. #KKK now controls an entire party!

Like you cannot condemn hate while being hateful yourself! That's like the #KKK trying to call out black supremacists

@gwensnyder #MattWalsh is an empty toolbag and a fucking #liar 🙄

"Trump is also charged with conspiring 'to injure, oppress, threaten, and intimidate one or more persons in the free exercise and enjoyment of a right and privilege secured to them by the Constitution and laws of the United States—that is, the right to vote, and to have one's vote counted.'”

"On August 1—last Tuesday—the Department of Justice charged Trump under laws Congress passed during Reconstruction to protect the Black Americans’ political rights. Trump is charged with conspiring to obstruct an official proceeding—violating a law passed to stop Ku Klux Klan terrorists from breaking up official meetings in the late 1860s—and obstructing that proceeding: the counting of electoral votes."

I was talking to my mom last night and she wanted to make sure I knew and remembered a story about my great grandfather, who grew up in Jacksonville, TX. He was very lucky to escape being tarred and feathered by the #KKK and having his store burned down in the 1930s. His awful crime? He respectfully served black women and called them by their full name, i.e. Mrs Johnson instead of Annie. That’s all it took to get on the list back then. That’s less than 100 years ago.

Today in Labor History August 4, 1964: Civil rights workers Michael Schwerner, Andrew Goodman and James Chaney were found dead in Mississippi after disappearing on June 21. They were activists with the Congress of Racial Equality promoting voting registration among African Americans. Seven Klu Klux Klan members, including Deputy Sheriff Price, were convicted.
