kkk (modern day)

The Ku Klux Klan is one of Americas most surely well-known and dreaded gang. They believe in white supremacy and they also believe in any other race stands in their way for that power they will act accordingly and even most times physically. The KKK has violence in a number of occasions such as the well-known acts of lynching and it still happens today. It has been around for over 130 years while it keeps on flourishing in America's general public today. The Ku Klux Klan started after the common war in the Southern United States. These southern individuals experienced much the impacts of this war. Numerous people have lost their homes, manors, companions and friends and family to the war.

When I watched the video I found it very depressing and scary that people could actually allow such language to come out of their mouths and for them to think that we as black people are zoo animals because of our skin colour is absolutely ridiculous, so even though we are exploring a sensitive subject we will be adding humor into it in order to lighten and change up the mood of the piece.

The reality of the matter is that racism still exists in the United States, yet there will be be men and women of all backgrounds and skin colour battling against groups like the KKK. For whatever length of time that there are contrasts between individuals in this world, there will always be hate, and the KKK will feed on this hate and use it has a defense mechanism to fight back violently. They may be noiseless for a long time, yet you can depend on the way that they arrive. They are "the Invisible Empire" and will always be the dull side to American History. Even though we associate the KKK with white people there are also a numerous of black and Hispanic people joining their forces as well, so for our protest we decided to put a spin on things and have black people dressed in the KKK uniforms trying to lynch or capture another black person, and this will represent the black on black crime happening right now in today society which unfortunately the black lives matter movement doesn't t focus on but simply "police brutality", so i believe it will be very effective if we test our audience on that subject and it will definitely shock them as that subject of black on black crime is not spoken about a lot.
