The first KKK meeting was on Christmas Eve 1865. For the 150th anniversary we thought it would be nice to make a map for the newly formed branch of the KKK, The Patriotic Brigade Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. And since this is the season for sharing we decided it would be nice for everybody to enjoy!
While the PBK is still in it’s infancy, trying to gain strength through members of former klans, we thought we might help them organize a bit. So we collected some names, addresses and phone numbers and put them on a fun interactive map. Maybe they will recruit their employers, friends, neighbors or local businesses. And to add to the cheer we added a sweet selection of songs for everybody to enjoy when tromping around this hate map.
Season’s Greetings,
