SUMMARY:Ghosts of Modern Culture War: The 1920s Ku Klux Klan in Oregon and Tillamook County
DESCRIPTION:Presented by:David A. HorowitzProfessor Emeritus of History\, Portland State UniversityAuthor of Inside the Klavern: The Secret History of the Ku Klux Klan of the 1920s \nDate & Time:Saturday\, October 253:30 pm \nLocation:North County Recreation District36155 9th StreetNehalem\, OR \nAdmission:$10 at the doorProceeds benefit Nehalem Valley Historical Society education programs \n\nEvent Description\nThe Ku Klux Klan (KKK) arrived in Oregon in the early 1920s\, during the history of the second Klan. The Klan quickly spread throughout the state\, aided by a mostly white\, Protestant population\, as well as by racist and anti-immigrant sentiments which were already embedded in the region. \nMuch of the influence of KKK Tillamook Chapter No. 8 came between 1921 and 1928\, when the lodge pursued an anti-Catholic agenda and supported Prohibition and law enforcement through its dominance of local government\, the police\, and the courts. \nUltimately\, the struggles and decline of the Klan in Oregon coincided with the struggles and decline of the Klan in other states\, and its activity faded in the 1930s. \nProfessor Horowitz will present the story of the impact of the Klan in Oregon and its presence in Tillamook County. Join us to hear and learn about this important and challenging era in our history. \n\n👉 Hosted by the Nehalem Valley Historical Society
