Klan-Destine Relationships : A Black Man's Odyssey in the Ku Klux Klan
Daryl D. Davis / Hardcover / Published 1997
Mr. Davis spoke in March 1998 at the Northern Virginia Ethical Society. Not discounting the need for legal and other social change in working to end racism, he documents the power of one-on-one relationships, looking for common ground, in helping others to also find the common humanity across racial lines.
