| Abstract | In the mid-1920s, when my grandmother was a little girl, the Ku Klux Klan came to Oconto County, trying to recruit members in the town of Mountain. My grandmother's family heard about the Klan rally from a schoolteacher who was boarding with them. She thought the rally sounded educational. He warned his audience about the black man who would soon come "up north" to take their jobs away. However, only a few people in Mountain had ever seen the black man and he did not seem to be a threat. The KKK man saw that he was not getting very far, so he switched to the Jew. He described the Jew as a moneylender who took people'shomes when they could not pay the high interest. This idea was more familiar since farm foreclosures were increasing. Still, the crowd could not imagine that the local banker at the Lutheran church on Sunday was secretly the Jew on Saturday. The KKK man knew he was losing them so he decided to play his trump card. |
