The most widespread Klan ever in early 1900s was mostly a northern thing

Three klans pretty much

The Reconstruction era klan we can argue to pieces here and do

Thaddeus and Sumner versus Forrest and Wheeler pick yer favorites

Then the early 1900s anti black anti Catholic anti immigrant klan which was mostly a Yankee klan

Then lastly the segregation era Klan which reached its zenith killing civil rights activists and intimidating voting rights movements which was mostly a Southern klan

Today the Klan is insignificant but those who do it are pretty much Midwestern and mid south and a few Deep South

I could be wrong but they exist mostly in the minds of the paranoid and Hollywood today

Even in my youth in Mississippi b1957 they were much stronger but still eschewed by reasonable folks as tacky at best

The middle klan was the high water mark

Oxford is a lost cause for now not worth fretting over
