The Klan: A Legacy of Hate in America
US (1982): Documentary/Short
This film traces the Ku Klux Klan from its origins after the Civil War as an anti-Reconstruction movement, to its status today as a paramilitary force. Original photography blended with archival film and still photographs dramatize the story of the Klan's hundred-year preoccupation with the harassment and persecution of those it considers "un-Christian and un-American."
