As I recall, the 1920s was the high water mark of the KKK. The KKK was not confined to the South. In fact, they had large followings in Northern states. Many people who should have known better were swept up in what they thought the clan represented. After they got in, they discovered what a thug, terrorist organization it was and got out. I expect that HST was one of those, because he became a huge foe of the KKK.

Why does Truman get a pass for being a member of the KKK? I think some sources say he paid membership of about $15 to the Klan, never went to a meeting of there's, they may have been a bit like a Fraternal organization. It's definitely worth researching, I never knew he had said the things this article does.
