A Quote by E.W. Jackson

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

Kool Moe Dee

[...] the only folks who kill black folks any more are black folks. [...] black folks kill more black folks than the KKK ever did.

Michael Nutter

There is an unbroken line of police violence in the United States that takes us all the way back to the days of slavery, the aftermath of slavery, the development of the Ku Klux Klan. There is so much history of this racist violence that simply to bring one person to justice is not going to disturb the whole racist edifice.

Angela Davis

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

Keith Olbermann

One demonstration of extremists, any more than a Ku Klux Klan demonstration in the United States, is not necessarily reflective of what the rest of the country feels.

Leon Panetta

I had explained that a woman's asking for equality in the church would be comparable to a black person's demanding equality in the Ku Klux Klan

Mary Daly

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

Mitt Romney

Fifty years ago, 100 white men chasing one black man across a field was called the Ku Klux Klan. Today it's called the PGA Tour.

Alex Hay

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

I wasn't aware of Ku Klux Klan as I was aware of the widespread assumption that African-Americans were dumber than white people. I think my father believed that. I think everybody white did.

Kurt Vonnegut

Just as Uncle Tom, back during slavery used to keep the Negroes from resisting the bloodhound or resisting the Ku Klux Klan by teaching them to love their enemies or pray for those who use them despitefully, today Martin Luther King is just a twentieth-century or modern Uncle Tom or religious Uncle Tom, who is doing the same thing today to keep Negroes defenseless in the face of attack that Uncle Tom did on the plantation to keep those Negroes defenseless in the face of the attack of the Klan in that day.

Malcolm X

Democracy is not compatible with financial oligarchy, with discrimination against Blacks and outrages by the Ku Klux Klan.

Che Guevara

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

Kurt Vonnegut

Arguably the most important parallel between mass incarceration and Jim Crow is that both have served to define the meaning and significance of race in America. Indeed, a primary function of any racial caste system is to define the meaning of race in its time. Slavery defined what it meant to be black (a slave), and Jim Crow defined what it meant to be black (a second-class citizen). Today mass incarceration defines the meaning of blackness in America: black people, especially black men, are criminals. That is what it means to be black.
