First things first. The guys mention “pig mask” once, I am prompted to misbehave. They mention it more than once, I am good to go. I Googled, and the first page results were so horrifying that I decided to include the whole damn page. Feast your eyes upon the horror, y’all. Oink oink.
Gotta have a good horror-laugh before discussing the Klan. Cleanses the brain palate.
This episode is definitely going to be in several parts. Too much information all at once, plus I have two oral histories about the Klan I have been allowed to share, one from the 1930’s in Texas, and one from the 1960’s in North Carolina.
