Episode 010 — The Origins of the Ku Klux Klan (Part I)

Part One of Two! This time we’re drinking Yellow Belly Imperial Stout while taking an intensive look at the founding of the United State’s longest-running terrorist organization, the Ku Klux Klan. Along the way, we’ll try to sift fact from fiction about the group’s early days, examine some factors leading to the Klan’s formation, and pin down the bedrock cause of the American Civil War. (Spoiler alert — It’s not what you think it is.)
