A Quote by Amber Hollibaugh

My father is a gypsy. He traveled in caravans and was branded by the Ku Klux Klan. You know I have a history about race in my family that has very much to do with the other things that you name about poverty, about class, about access - or lack of it.

It's not appropriate to joke about the Ku Klux Klan.

Mitt Romney

Way back about nineteen-twenty there was a Klan... The Ku Klux's gone... It'll never come back.

Harper Lee

I know something about the civilization of China, with my background, obviously, and I think I know something about American history. But that's about all. And I've traveled all over the world, and for a long time I didn't know very much about it, really.

I. M. Pei

I've always been curious about the psychology of the person behind the mask. When someone is anonymous, it opens the door to all kinds of antisocial behavior, as seen by the Ku Klux Klan.

Philip Zimbardo

As a matter of social class Ku Klux Klan would have been regarded as white trash.

Kurt Vonnegut

Hitler wanted to hear all about the American skyscrapers ... but failed utterly to draw logical conclusions from the information. .... He was passionately interested in the Ku Klux Klan. ... He seemed to think it was a political movement similar to his own.

Ernst Hanfstaengl

I knew as much about the Klan, if not more than many of the Klan people that I interviewed. When they see that you know about their organization, their belief system, they respect you.

Daryl Davis

One respect in which I'm very much my father's son is how I feel about Joyce. 'Ulysses' is very much about daily life, when you get into this other guy's life and you learn about the things he cares about, and why he cares about them. And then, very indirectly, very subtly, you learn why politics has impacted his life, too.

Pete Buttigieg

But George Lucas is carrying about Black actors, about Black men, about Black history, which really incorporates and tells all of history. You can't take one race out without eliminating every other race if you're going to tell the story of the human race.

Terrence Howard

Ozzy Osbourne

I accepted an invitation to talk to the women's branch of the Ku Klux Klan.

Margaret Sanger

The Ku Klux Klan never dies. They just stop wearing sheets because sheets cost too much.

Thurgood Marshall

Let's be very honest about what this is about. It's not about bashing Democrats, it's not about taxes, they have no idea what the Boston tea party was about, they don't know their history at all. This is about hating a black man in the White House. This is racism straight up.

Janeane Garofalo

I never ever ran from the Ku Klux Klan, and I shouldn't have to run from a black man.

Kool Moe Dee

The causes of crime are very complicated. But there is a very big literature, as you know, about single parenthood in crime, about race in crime, and about poverty in crime.

Bill Bennett

Fox News is worse than al Qaeda. It's as dangerous as the Ku Klux Klan.

Keith Olbermann
