[Robert · Rating 3 out of 5]

Interesting book of interviews of members of the KKK. I found it fascinating how they would try to defend themselves, claiming they were neither racist nor violent. However, the book lacked depth as the subjects were obviously evasive about describing their actions and preferred self-promotion.

The book also began to get repetitive and caught up in describing the various squabbles and splits the KKK regularly goes through. Little attention was given to the broader picture

[Fishface · Rating 3 out of 5]

This had a lot of information in it about the KKK, past and present. Hard to keep reading, frankly, because it was such a downer with one example after another of people who are out living their lives free as the birds, when they need to be behind bars for the sake of public safety.
