Check out the "March across Dixie daily report"
H.K. has made into Texas. The March has been fairly smooth with a good publc reception except for a little incident on Dec. 12 in Grambling, LA as follows:
We had barely made it to the City Limits of Grambling, LA. when we were accosted by several hoodlums from the local Government Housing project. They were shouting vulgar phrases, throwing pieces of wood and several of them were even wearing full face hoods. Just as they appeared so did one of Grambling's Police officers. The offending people still proceeded to threaten to shoot and kill us all. A woman from the local newspaper who had stopped to get a story for her paper never even got to take the picture of (as she referred) some good looking guys. The police officer then told us that he was going to escort us to the Mayors office, where the Mayor was waiting to meet with H.K. We loaded the vehicles and followed him down the road. He then pulled over after going only 50 ft. and got out of his car and told us that the Chief of Police was coming. After about a minute the Chief pulled up. He then jumped out of his car and asked H.K. just what he was doing. H.K. tried to show the Chief some papers explaining what he was doing.
The Chief slapped it away and told us that he did not have time for all of this and that we needed to get out of Grambling, NOW !!!!. H.K. told him that we were to go and see the Mayor, and the Chief said that we were not going to see anybody and that we would not go into Grambling at all. We explained to him what had happened back up the road and he was not concerned in the least. We asked him if he would escort us safely out of Grambling and he told us that we would not do anything for us. Then he said again, "Get out of Grambling, NOW !!!! or else". We were still getting threats from the group that had gathered behind the Chief, who had chosen to do nothing about this. We then thought it best to call the Sheriff's Department go get some help from them. They did have to come out to aid us 3 different times. The last time that we had to call them was when we were approached by a car as we left out of the City Limits of Grambling. The driver told us that we should get into the van and leave the area, as there was a group of people waiting ahead of us to "do us harm". The sheriff's office then sent out 2 patrol cars to stay with us until we finished the march for the day at the outskirts of Simsboro, LA. Marching with H. K. were the Commander and Adjutant of the Ward Camp in Farmerville, the Commander of the Nicholson Camp in Ruston, the Northeast Brigade Commander and the Commander of the Hot Springs Camp of the Arkansas Division. We could not have asked for a better day of marching and defending our heritage
