I saw that President Wilson was quoted in a movie back in 1915 with saying something about the KKK. I didn't know he supported the KKK. I knew he was racist but I didn't know about the KKK part and him.
He wasn't quoted
in movie, he made a quote about a movie. The movie was
The Birth of a Nation which was essencially a pro-KKK/shamlessly racist and pro-southern "version" of the historical events of the Civil War and Reconstruction. Wilson was quoted as saying "The only terrible thing about it is that it is all so horribly true." Which, of course, it wasn't, but it is proof of the fact, if any was needed, that Wilson was, deep down, a racist who supported the Klan.
