One of the main jobs of historians is to interpret the past by reviewing primary documents, scholarly secondary sources, and then creating an analysis of this research. In this assignment, you will be presenting your own interpretation of the Ku Klux Klan in Texas during the 1920s. Consider the development and spread of the Klan in Texas. What led to the rapid growth of the Klan? How did the Klan operate in Texas? Are their values still present in Texas today? You are encouraged to bring in outside research from scholarly sources.
