Stetson kennedy who exposed the Ku Klux Klan's secrets dies

Author and folklorist Stetson Kennedy, who infiltrated the Ku Klux Klan six decades ago and exposed its secrets to authorities and the public but was also criticised for possibly exaggerating his exploits, died on Saturday. He was 94.
Kennedy died at Baptist Medical Center South near St Augustine, where he had been receiving hospice care.In the 1940s, Kennedy used the 'Superman' radio show to expose and ridicule the Klan's rituals.
In the 1950s he wrote 'I Rode with the Ku Klux Klan,' which was later renamed 'The Klan Unmasked,' and 'The Jim Crow Guide.'
'Exposing their folklore - all their secret handshakes, passwords and how silly they were, dressing up in white sheets' was one of the strongest blows delivered to the Klan, said Peggy Bulger, director of the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress, in a 2007 interview
