Klansville U.S.A.

In the 1960s, as the civil rights movement grew across America, the long-dormant Ku Klux Klan gained momentum as well. That the Klan would rise once again wasn't surprising, but where the reincarnation took place was.

In just three years, the North Carolina Klan grew from a handful of friends to some 10,000 members, giving the Tarheel State a new nickname: "Klansville, U.S.A."
