Ku Klux Klan: A Secret History DVD

The story of the most famous hate group in America is told by reporters, scholars and past and present Klan members.

Since the days following the Civil War, the Ku Klux Klan has preached a gospel of hate, intolerance and exclusion. But while it has attracted members who number in the millions at times, it has also repeatedly been battered into near-submission by activists, the government and changing public opinion.

THE 20TH CENTURY™ ventures back to the days of the Reconstruction South and through the landmarks in Klan history to tell the complete story of the most famous hate group in America. Discover how the six original Klansmen came together and chose their name. See how the release of America's first blockbuster movie spurred a resurgence in the KKK and how they expanded their target to include Jews, Catholics and immigrants as well as blacks. Examine the tactics of Klan leaders like William Joseph Simmons and David Duke. And, finally, find out how the Klan has repeatedly battled back from the brink of extinction.

Filled with rare and often disturbing footage as well as extensive interviews with, Klan experts, past and present members and reporters, THE 20TH CENTURY™ presents a comprehensive history of the Ku Klux Klan.

Nazi America: A Secret History DVD

In a feature-length survey of Nazism in the U.S., we trace the history from the fairly benign organization that gave structure to newly arrived German immigrants to today's neo-Nazis who breech the borderline of free speech by using radical action to force their agenda of Aryan purity. It's also a history of the imperfection of American freedom.
