KKK

Am trying out something. If you don't know the meaning of a word, move over it and see if the meaning of the word comes out. Not all of them will show up though. Only the words I think some of you may not know. Examples in this post are "waned", "guise" and "slurs". Let me know if it's useful. Try the lyrics of the song below too. Thank you.

Ku Klux Klan aka KKK as mentioned in class today which spreads the message of hate and violence. Though their power has waned, their presence remains though in a different guise and against different groups of people. Well, if you want to know more, go to this website for some history of this clan and this one (easier and shorter read) too.

Found another youtube video which features a report off CNN about the revival of the KKK in the United States. It's scary how people promote hate by feeding on the fear of others. More of concern is the fact that these people are recruiting young adults into their fold. Here we thought that we have become more educated and civilised as humans, these things remind us to be mindful of what we say and do. We really cannot take things for granted. Who is to say what can happen next if we tolerate things like insults and slurs on other people? Food for thought...



And another off the history channel..
