Extract from the officially authorized history of the original Ku Klux Klan, written by the daughter of the founder of that organization in Alabama, Davis Susan Lawrence:
The KKK was financed from England by the Jewish former Secretary of State for the Confederacy, Benjamin P. Judah (who fled the South at the end of the Civil War);
The KKK's chief chaplain was a Roman Catholic;
The KKK's chief Justice was North America's 33rd Degree Mason leader;
The hood--for which the KKK became famous--was in fact outlawed by the original organization because so many people were using its disguise to commit crimes in the name of the KKK;
The original KKK's primary activity was political in nature, and their officers in various legislative bodies--reaching as high as the U.S. Senate--were focused on restoring white rule to the southern states;
When official KKK posses were formed, they were under strict orders never to dispense mob justice or engage in whippings, lynchings, or other abuse;
When rogue elements and non-KKK members started performing atrocities in the KKK's name, the leadership ordered the organization permanently disbanded.
