In 1925, the kkk invaded the nation's capital as 40,000 robed figures paraded down Pennsylvania Avenue. By the end of the decade the Ku Klux Klan gain power and had faded in history. As they march down the Ku Klux Klan show American people how strong they have became. It was either you would join them or you would be against them The kkk wanted to eliminate any african american because they felt nobody can top there power. Throughout the early 1900's they were still causing problems killing and burning crosses strictly that was a sign of racism towards other religion. The invisible empire has cause toxic combination of violence politics and exploitative leadership. As people started to realize how the ku klux klan started to become a gold mine.
