KU KLUX KLAN
Ku Klux Klan says
"Brotherhood of Man"
as long as you're white
it's alright.
Brothers in arms
with crosses to bear
burn in hell
for all we care.
barbecued brothers
black as night.
Ironic that
but it's alright.

The origins of the KKK are based in post-Civil War America
when the defeated South faced turmoil and depredations
from lawless mobs including carpetbaggers and their
like, and the fear of the recently emancipated slaves whose
legions found liberty but not food and a future, and were
beyond the control of despised & disregarded "authority".
The Griffith film classic "Birth of a Nation" gives an
uncomfortable (to modern eyes) portrayal of the KKK.
The later manifestations of this organisation became a
byword for hate and brutality...like others (IRA?) who used
their "cause" to inflict unimaginable suffering and misery
on others they saw as a threat.
