The Ku Klux Klan is the oldest terrorist group in the United States. This secret society, created
in 1865, has survived throughout the decades and has always managed to rise from its ashes.
It has been making the news for over 150 years. 150 years of hatred, racism and horror. A
cruel history whose demons still haunt America.

The KKK: Its history and lasting legacy
Since Christmas Eve in 1865, membership in the Ku Klux Klan ignited and multiplied three separate times, in each instance enacting brutal violence and terror -- but the Klan's power never held for long. Though only 2 dozen Klan groups exist today, its continued importance lies in a far more elusive and sinister legacy.

The Hidden History of the KKK
Constant Lecorgne was Edward Ball’s great-great grandfather. A New Orleans carpenter and Confederate veteran, Constant was also a “violent white supremacist,” says Ball. Ball explored the life and times of his ancestor in his recent book, “Life of a Klansman, A Family History in White Supremacy.” Ball says Constant was a member of KKK-like organizations and took part in several violent actions against formerly enslaved people during the Reconstruction period following the Civil War. #InsideEdition

Ku Klux Klan, une histoire américaine (1/2) | ARTE
En archives et témoignages éloquents, ce documentaire en deux volets retrace l’histoire méconnue, car en partie refoulée, du "plus ancien groupe terroriste des États-Unis", qui a mis en oeuvre par une violence largement impunie ses visées racistes, de 1865 à nos jours.
1. Naissance d'un empire invisible
En 1865, une poignée de vétérans sudistes de la guerre de Sécession fondent une société secrète dans le Tennessee et lui donnent le nom de Ku Klux Klan, peut-être en référence au grec kuklos, "le cercle". Par jeu, puis pour terroriser, ils se parent d'attributs pseudo médiévaux, robes et cagoules dissimulant leur identité. Sur 9 millions d'habitants, 4 millions de Noirs libérés de l'esclavage vivent alors dans les anciens États fédérés du Sud. En 1868, année électorale, le Klan, qui a ...

offensive against the invisible empire, which was officially destroyed in 1872. The Ku Klux
Klan was reborn in 1915 thanks to the film The Birth of a Nation by D. W. Griffith. Under new
leadership, it evolved to fit into an America undergoing major changes and broadened its
trade in hatred. The KKK became anti-immigrant, anti-urban, anti-communist, anti-Semitic,
and anti-Catholic. Nearly four million Americans joined what would become a highly
influential mass lobbying organization. But at the end of the 1920s, scandals and the
economic crisis weakened the movement, which eventually disappeared again after the
Second World War.

Part 2:
With the civil rights movement gaining momentum, the Ku Klux Klan once again
set out on the march in the Southern United States. Complicity with local authorities, white
supremacists unleashed a wave of hatred in the 1960s: the attack on the church in
Birmingham, the assassination of civil rights activists. Their crimes shocked public opinion.
Under political pressure, the FBI went on the offensive. The result: in the 1970s, the Klan had
only a few thousand members left. A new leader, David Duke, tried for a time to give it a
veneer of respectability, but terror was still part of the organization's DNA. Little by little, the
Klansmen swapped their hoods for military fatigues and swastika tattoos. Today the ranks of
the Klan and other supremacist groups are swelling once again in Donald Trump's America.

En archives et témoignages éloquents, ce documentaire en deux volets retrace l’histoire méconnue, car en partie refoulée, du "plus ancien groupe terroriste des États-Unis", qui a mis en oeuvre par une violence largement impunie ses visées racistes, de 1865 à nos jours.
1. Naissance d'un empire invisible
En 1865, une poignée de vétérans sudistes de la guerre de Sécession fondent une société secrète dans le Tennessee et lui donnent le nom de Ku Klux Klan, peut-être en référence au grec kuklos, "le cercle". Par jeu, puis pour terroriser, ils se parent d'attributs pseudo médiévaux, robes et cagoules dissimulant leur identité. Sur 9 millions d'habitants, 4 millions de Noirs libérés de l'esclavage vivent alors dans les anciens États fédérés du Sud. En 1868, année électorale, le Klan, qui a grossi rapidement pour se transformer en organisation paramilitaire, multiplie attentats et lynchages pour les dissuader d'exercer leurs nouveaux droits. Quatre ans plus tard, quand Washington dissout le Klan et envoie l'armée rétablir l'ordre, ses membres et alliés se sont arrogé tous les pouvoirs. Sous l'égide des lois dites "Jim Crow", une ségrégation impitoyable succède à l'esclavage. Les images des lynchages, devenus monnaie courante, figurent sur des cartes postales. Quelques décennies plus tard, dans une Amérique en pleine mutation où des millions d'immigrants affluent, le Ku Klux Klan, popularisé par le film de David W. Griffith Naissance d'une nation, qui fait vibrer 50 millions de spectateurs, renaît spectaculairement. Sous l'impulsion de ses leaders, il élargit son commerce de haine aux immigrants, aux communistes, aux juifs, aux catholiques... Organisation de masse forte de près de 4 millions de membres, il contribue à faire voter en 1924 une loi limitant l'immigration aux Européens du Nord, qui reste en vigueur pendant plus de quarante ans. Affaibli par les scandales et la Grande Dépression, puis discrédité après la Seconde Guerre mondiale pour ses sympathies fascistes et nazies, le Klan disparaît pour resurgir une décennie plus tard, avec l'émergence du mouvement pour les droits civiques.
Part d'ombre
Pour retracer en détail les quatre vies successives du Ku Klux Klan, David Korn-Brzoza a rassemblé un impressionnant fonds d'archives, alimenté en partie par celles du mouvement lui-même, et rencontré une dizaine d'interlocuteurs : un membre repenti de l'organisation, des vétérans de la lutte pour les droits civiques, le juge pugnace qui, quatorze ans après l'attentat de Birmingham, a poursuivi et condamné ses auteurs, ainsi que différents chercheurs et analystes. En montrant ainsi combien le mouvement et ses crimes incarnent une histoire et des valeurs collectives, il jette une lumière crue sur cette part d'ombre que l'Amérique blanche peine encore à reconnaître.
