This article was
written to raise awareness of the KKK and hopefully to spread the message of
how terrible it is. The clan has mottos like
"save our land, join the klan" and "if it ain't white, it
ain't right." It disgusts me to see that something like this hasn’t been
fully put behind us. We should not stoop so low to revisit this subject and try
to still make it successful. We are better than that. We are Americans.

Ku Klux Klan (KKK) Recruitments, period 6, Moseman
Recently a white
supremacist group called the Ku Klux Klan, or KKK, has been recruiting
thousands. They mainly target African Americans, but also Jews, immigrants,
gays, and Catholics. From New York to Texas they have been recruiting the average
American citizen. Not only are they informally introducing this into American’s
lives, they are trying to win us over with candy. Come on, candy? Bags are
placed on doors or cars containing fliers, membership applications, and candy.
Many are shocked and offended by this act they have taken on Americans. In Ferguson,
Missouri this has seemed to turn on citizens. It’s a shame to think that
America is still having racial issues. We are all the same. Take away our skin
and you are left with bones, muscles, organs, a brain, and a heart, no matter
what the person’s skin color, eye color, hair color, gender preference, or
religion choice is, we are all Americans and we are all capable of respecting
one another. That’s what makes everybody unique, their preferences and choices.
If we were all white, all believed in the same morals, all had the same opinion
and view of the world we live in, where we live would not be called America.
