Do you know anything about this organization?
Do they still exist?
Where are they now?
Are there any members of Ku Klux Clan in Turkey?


I:
Ku Klux Klan (KKK) is the name of several past and present organizations in the United States that have advocated white supremacy, anti-Semitism, anti-Catholicism, racism, homophobia, anti-Communism and nativism. These organizations have often used terrorism, violence, and acts of intimidation, such as cross burning and lynching, to oppress African Americans and other social or ethnic groups.

For the last ten or more years the title of "White Turks" has been main dish of our conversations. These kind of organizations makes me surprise that they can still find followers after II. World War and Hitler.

These pictures can also give you some idea about the organization, l suppose..

As the son of the Ottomans, l do not believe and do not want believe Turks done such things. As far as l know we have been fair enough to people who joined us.

This organization were found by Veterians and the people who are from the South U.S.A..

l feel my self l should add the information about Martin Luther King while talking about Ku k.k.

Martin Luther King, Jr. (January 15, 1929 – April 4, 1968) was one of the main leaders of the American civil rights movement. He was a political activist and Baptist minister and is regarded as one of America's greatest orators. King's most influential and well-known public address is the "I Have A Dream" speech, delivered on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. in 1963. In 1964, King became the youngest man to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize (for his work as a peacemaker, promoting nonviolence and equal treatment for different races). On April 4, 1968, King was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee.

In 1977, he was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by Jimmy Carter. In 1986, Martin Luther King Day was established as a United States holiday. In 2004, King was awarded a Congressional Gold Medal.[1]

Well it seems like you have already explained much of it but I can add a comment to this new thread.KKK terrorists' biggest aim was to protect their Pure american blood ( :ices_tot::confused:).After the Civil war, this group of idiots (accept my apology for being rude) tried to gather their commune to reach thier sacred aim:"racism".

What does "Ku klux" mean by the way,has anyone got an idea?

What is that ?
Pure American Blood?
America is the country of a mirror of the rest of the world. It is one of the reason l like USA.

What does "Ku klux" mean by the way,has anyone got an idea?

Yes, It has and it comes from the ancient time:) Greek...Mother of the civilization.

i had first heard about them in the autobiography of Malcolm X. his family was forced to leave Omaha by this clan. idon't think that there is an exact match of this clan in Turkiye but similar ones like "DTO".

NOUN: abbr. KKK 1. A secret society organized in the South after the Civil War to reassert white supremacy by means of terrorism. 2. A secret fraternal organization of similar intent founded in Georgia in 1915.
ETYMOLOGY: Perhaps alteration of Greek kuklos, circle; see cycle + alteration of clan.


Ku - the sound of lifting the bolt
Klux - the sound of pulling the bolt back and ejecting the spent cartridge
Klan - the sound of (in one motion) chambering a round by sliding the bolt forward and slapping the bolt down to cock and lock the rifle.
Of course, this may then be a myth. It also might co-exist with the explanation offered by eldritch, above, who appears to have better information than

This is the organization also affect the Literature..
Is there any one who has any idea about it?

Hey would you mind slowing down a bit so that we can give answers?

KKK members thought that they had to protect the pure american blood;however,nobody is "pure" American heritage, because everybody's ancestors came from another country to America, and they have that country's heritage in their blood.That is why I mentioined it sarcastically.

So you mean Langston Hughes.That is not a proper poem to paste here.

however,nobody is "pure" American heritage

Native Americans could rightly be said to be so.

And l know you know;)

Saposcat Üstad,
Wellcome and please join and please inform me (this poor guy)

Native Americans could rightly be said to be so.

Yeah Saposcat, they claim that but you tell me what is or who is pure american?

Native Americans are as "pure" as an "American" can be. Though "pureness" is not relevant to anything.

may be they aren't exactly looking for pure American blood and being white, Anglosaxon and protestant is enough for them.

I hope they all die soon.:rolleyes:

Oh and, "l know them and would like to support" is really funny. :D

KKK is;
Kara Kuvvetleri Komutanlığı. For me.

I don't recognize the other KKK's. They all just ridiculous.

Native Americans are as "pure" as an "American" can be. Though "pureness" is not relevant to anything.

I specifically talk about KKK members and their strange aim to protect that pure american blood;however,I said there is no "pure" American heritage, because everybody's ancestors came from another country to America, and they have that country's heritage in their blood.In the history, an american is defined as "a person whose mother is Irish and whose father is maybe African-American."This is just an exaple,though. So here we are talking about the melting pot.
I do not have any word for Native Americans.
While I am talking about pureness, I actually talk about the idea of americanness.

Konuyla iligili değil özür diliyorum ama acaba mesaj yazan bir arkadaş arka arkaya mesaj yazmak yerine ilk yazdığı mesaja "edit" deyip sonraki eklemelerini aynı mesaj içine oraya yapamaz mı? Aynı mesajı yazan araya hiç bir yorum alınmadan üst üste 5-6 mesajı sıralaması çok yorucu ve karıştırcı; Kişi hangisine cevap vereceğini şaşırtacağı gibi yoktan yere yer işgal eder hale gelip mesaj sayısı konusunda bence gereksiz bir artışa sebebyet veriyor.

Just reminding!
