The Klan has been mostly dead since the late 1970s. I have a friend in the FBI who told me so. The Reagan administration concluded the infiltration dues were the only thing which kept the KKK on life support and wanted to end the wasteful program.
The race industry had a fit and the proposal was quietly dropped. The Clinton administration came to the same conclusion over a decade later. This time, there was no outcry, so the program was dropped.
Once in awhile since, some of the 2500 to 3000 white supremacists* left in America get together and decide to co-opt the name, producing the typical rally of a handful of fake Klansman, a dozen times as many police and 100 or more counter protesters for every police.

Of course you understand that in today’s academia, “white extremism” isn’t limited to just the Klan.
It’s everywhere.

One thing you left out is that when the real white supremacists do stage “Klan rallies” it’s typically a shake down for a payoff. They know nobody wants that in their town, so they can either get a bribe under the table to stay away, or a nice judgement on a lawsuit if they are denied permits.
