Descripción
Sumario:Ten Dollars to Hate tells the story of the massive Ku Klux Klan of the 1920s-by far the most "successful" incarnation since its inception in the ashes of the Civil War-and the first prosecutor in the nation to successfully convict and jail Klan members. Dan Moody, a twenty-nine-year-old Texas district attorney, demonstrated that Klansmen could be punished for taking the law into their own hands-in this case, for the vicious flogging of a young World War I veteran. The 1920s Klan numbered in the millions and infiltrated politics and law enforcement across the United States, not just in the Deep.
