Speaking of being aware of history, some people might not comprehend your reference to Jews in relation to the KKK. The KKK didn't just lynch random blacks. They lynched Republicans (the KKK was democrats). While the KKK mostly lynched blacks who "didn't know their place," they also lynched white republicans, including jews, who encouraged black independence.

The post-1915 version of the Klan lynched whoever they didn't like, or whoever disagreed with them. I understand they lynched one of their own in the '50s.
