By 1922 Indiana had the largest Klan organization of any U.S. state, and its membership continued to increase dramatically under the leadership of D.C. Stephenson. It averaged 2,000 new members per week from July 1922 to July 1923, the month when Stephenson was appointed Grand Dragon of Indiana. He led the Indiana Klan, and other KKK chapters he supervised, to break away from the national organization in late 1923.
Indiana's Klan was one of the strongest in the country, with a large percentage of the entire White Protestant male population being members. It reached its peak of power at around 250,000 members. By 1925, over half the elected members of the Indiana General Assembly, the Governor of Indiana, and many other high-ranking officials in local and state government were members of the Klan. Politicians in many areas learned they needed the Klan's endorsement to win office.
Indiana has always been the Midwest’s Deep South.
With their football history? Not sure about that one!
