The KKK

The KKK by Nicole Durst

The KKK or more formally known as the Ku Klux Klan, was a terrorist organizations that begun with Confederate Army Soldiers. There were three steps of the KKK. The first one originated in the south but was eventually 'wiped out' due to procescution of their crimes. The second wave of the KKK was contained in a small area in Georgia. The last uprising of the KKK began in the 1950s and has never ceased. While their practices such as the burning the cross and performing lynchings are not seen today, the Ku Klux Klan still remains at large.
