Re: ДЭВИД ДЮК. Еврейский вопрос глазами американца.
Он "возродил" в смысле увеличил число членов будучи во главе, т.к. похитрее и полживее своих предшественников. Те ведь были откровенны.

the Klans shifted their focus to other issues, including affirmative action, immigration, and especially busing ordered by the courts in order to desegregate schools. In 1971, Klansmen used bombs to destroy ten school buses in Pontiac, Michigan, and charismatic Klansman David Duke was active in South Boston during the school busing crisis of 1974. Duke also made efforts to update its image, urging Klansmen to "get out of the cow pasture and into hotel meeting rooms." Duke was leader of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan from 1974 until he resigned from the Klan in 1978

Fragmentation, decentralization and decline have continued unabated." However, they also noted that the "need for justification runs deep in the disaffected and is unlikely to disappear, regardless of how low the Klan's fortunes eventually sink."
Today the only known former member of the Klan to hold a Federal office in the United States is Democratic Senator Robert Byrd, who says he "deeply regrets" joining the Klan over half a century ago, ... There are currently no known members of the Klan who also hold a Federal office.
The ACLU has provided legal support to various factions of the KKK in defense of their First Amendment rights to hold public rallies, parades, and marches, and their right to field political candidates.
