revisionists live everywhere ..
Study some history, folks...The “KKK” began at Pulaski, TN. in a small college and was started (and joined by Forrest) as a club to clandestinely punish cheaters and slobs at the college...When it morphed into a radical organization, Forrest left it as did the students...it was taken over by southerners who used it to fight against “Northern carpetbaggers” who were taking advantage of the defeated southerners because the law sided with the northerners.
It then later “morphed” into the “racist” organization long after Forrest left.
