Black Klansman--#29 finished

An African American police detective in Colorado Springs, CO in 1979 sees a KKK ad and fills out info & mails off thinking ad was probably a joke or something.  Instead he gets a response and starts an investigation of the KKK there.  He talks to them on the phone and sets things up to meet where he involves another detective that is white to pose as him to join the group.  This is during the David Duke time in the KKK before he gains a more national status.  Good information about what it was like then and there and just about the times.  Book was only written years later in 2014 by the detective Ron Stallworth and turned into a movie.  I haven't seen the movie but remember hearing about it.  Today's white christian nationalism movement seems to share a lot of the KKK motivations, seems like that undercurrent is always around, which is very sad to say.

I have posted it on PBS and it is the only copy in system so maybe will get requested, will just have to see.
