Since the early development of society in the United States,
racism has always been a divisive issue faced by communities on a
political level. ... In present time people are more open
minded, racism does exist, but it is totally unacceptable for society
to tolerate bigotry from a political figure. ... "As a
member of the KKK at Louisiana State University, where he received his
BA in history in 1974, he became an enthusiastic admirer of Adolph
Hitler, and by 1975, he had risen to grand wizard of the Louisiana Ku
Klux Klan" (Mackenzie, 40). ... Racism in the United States is outlined in elections of
characters like David Duke. ... Jackson recently
condemned former Ku Klux Klan Wizard David Dukes election to the
Louisiana House of Representatives, calling it the result of a
national problem of racism and one "the entire nation has to deal
with" ("Duke election. ... Over 150 state and local policemen
were present to control the crowd of anti-KKK as well as different KKK
factions. ... Many believe that since the
civil rights movement the KKK is no longer a danger. But, we must not
forget racism and bigotry does not die with an amendment to the
Constitution. ... We must not forget that the KKK is still
alive, and we, as Americans, should do everything in our power to
protect the American dream.
