The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, as a singular organization, was founded in Louisiana in 1956 and boasts David Duke as its first national director! Our current National Director is Pastor Thomas Robb, and he has held the position since 1991. In 1997, the name was changed to The Knights Party to further distinguish the organization from other groups using the Klan name. The names “Knights of the Ku Klux Klan” and “Ku Klux Klan” have long passed into the public domain. Unfortunately, this means anyone can use the names for less-than-honorable purposes. It has even been suggested that the SPLC (Southern Poverty Law Center) has organized or fostered fake Klan groups in order to elevate its own fundraising efforts. How can you know the difference? The SPLC relies on scare tactics to expand its fundraising agenda. If you see Klan, White Nationalist, or other alleged white patriotic groups promoting violence, illegal activity, or using violent rhetoric, then it must be assumed they are or have been used by the SPLC and other similar anti-white groups to bolster their chief aims of fundraising and destroying the reputation of the overall white Christian resistance. The Knights Party is a national organization with no ties to other Klan or White Nationalist groups. We pursue our goals. working within our own designed framework, emphasizing faith, family, and heritage. We do not condone violence, violent rhetoric, or illegal activity of any sort. Not only are these actions counterproductive, but they also do not demonstrate the Christian conduct we hold dear.
