"The Modern Ku Klux Klan" by Henry P. Fry is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the resurgence of the Ku Klux Klan in America during the early 1920s, examining its organization, motives, and activities. Fry, having been an insider in the KKK, aims to expose the alarming realities of the group, focusing particularly on its oppressive tactics and extremist ideologies. At the start of the book, Fry introduces the reader to his background and the peculiar parallels he finds between the modern Klan and the medieval secret tribunal known as the Vehmgericht. He details his initial curiosity that led him to join the Klan, believing it was a harmless fraternal organization. However, upon closer inspection, he becomes increasingly aware of its political machinations and the dangerous implications behind its secretive nature. Fry's preface sets the tone for his investigation, which ultimately reveals the Klan's structure and agendas, linking them to racial and religious bigotry while calling for the organization to be outlawed for the protection of American democratic values.
