Dramatically challenging our preconceptions of the hooded Klansmen responsible for establishing a Jim Crow racial hierarchy in the 1870s South, this \"second Klan\" spread in states principally above the Mason-Dixon line by courting xenophobic fears surrounding the flood of immigrant \"hordes\" landing on American shores. \"Part cautionary tale, part expose\" (\u003cem\u003eWashington Post\u003c\/em\u003e), The Second Coming of the KKK \"illuminates the surprising scope of the movement\" (\u003cem\u003eThe New Yorker\u003c\/em\u003e); the Klan attracted four-to-six-million members through secret rituals, manufactured news stories, and mass \"Klonvocations\" prior to its collapse in 1926--but not before its potent ideology of intolerance became part and parcel of the American tradition. A \"must-read\" (\u003cem\u003eSalon\u003c\/em\u003e) for anyone looking to understand the current moment, \u003cem\u003eThe Second Coming of the KKK\u003c\/em\u003e offers \"chilling comparisons to the present day\" (\u003cem\u003eNew York Review of Books\u003c\/em\u003e).","brand":"Liveright Publishing Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48124077965501,"sku":"BS-TC0-494925","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0771\/9767\/2637\/files\/9781631494925-HD.jpg?v=1787097578","url":"https:\/\/boundigo.com\/products\/the-second-coming-of-the-kkk-the-ku-klux-klan-of-the-1920s-and-the-american-political-tradition","provider":"Boundigo Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
