Description

"The southern Methodist and the southern Klansman feared the changes
that would inevitably come for blacks in the south. Rather than embrace
blacks as partners in faith, the southern Methodist church became the silent
partner of the Ku Klux Klan in an attempt to forestall the day of reckoning."
