Ku Klux Klan sends video to activist group's president
Although members of the NAACP and Mississippi Rising Coalition are concerned about a recent video released by the Ku Klux Klan, they want to make it clear they are not intimidated.
According to WLOX and multiple sources, the 10-minute video, which was emailed to coalition president Lea Campbell, was posted Sunday on Youtube by the United White Dixie Knights. It was removed Wednesday morning. The video includes a series of still photos, one of which shows six men in hoods and robes standing in front of a burning cross.
A man speaking in the video identified himself as "Reverend Smith" and stated his message was not a physical threat.
"Y'all aren't going to take down our flag. We gonna fight," Smith said. "This ain't no threat, nothing physical but we gonna fight through the court system. We gonna fight through the legal way, the proper way."
