Some of our nation's most horrific and tragic acts of the past 150 years have occurred by the hands of members of the Ku Klux Klan. The sight of hooded KKK members burning crosses is largely a thing of the past, used mostly at public displays by a small, radical faction of the organization and as Propaganda to recruit new members.

The vast majority of today's KKK uses its cultural images less to incite fear among African-American, Jewish, and foreign-born people, and more to identify themselves to each other. Actually, in the last year, the KKK's membership has grown about 30% because of the Immigration issues. They now burn crosses on the lawns of Hispanic Immigrants.

What does the sons of liberty and the KKK have in common?

The Sons of Liberty and the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) both emerged as secretive, grassroots organizations that sought to enforce their political beliefs through intimidation and violence. The Sons of Liberty formed in the 1760s to resist British taxation and promote colonial independence, while the KKK, founded in the 1860s, aimed to uphold white supremacy and resist Reconstruction efforts in the South. Both groups used fear and coercion to influence public opinion and political outcomes, albeit in vastly different historical contexts and with different goals.
