Dirty little secret, the klan was also very active up north. When I grew up in Monsey, NY (25 mi NW of NYC) a few miles down the road was a dilapidated old building alongside one of the old Eire Lackawanna RR tracks that was used as a meeting house for the local klan chapter many years earlier. And yes, they would march in Memorial Day and 4th of July parades waving the Stars and Stripes.
Oh, they are coming for the Stars and Stripes next, it’s already starting.
Great photo of democrats being themselves. Was it taken during the Progressive Woodrow Wilson administration?
