Women
in the Ku Klux Klan |
|
 |
Women were first initiated into the Ku Klux Klan in 1923 during the second era of the Klan. These women formed rules and beliefs, which were to be followed by the members of the Women Ku Klux Klan. These beliefs were recorded in the document Creed Of Klanswomen. In this document the women focused on heritage, great and glorious America, eligibility, and what they believed to be good for America. The Creed Of Klanswomen let everybody know what these women thought to be one hundred percent American. With these ideas being carried out by over one million native-born, protestant women, this would help to insure the security that these women were looking for. |
