Ron Stallworth

1978-ban a Colorado Springs-i (Colorado állam) közösség növekedést tapasztalhatott a Ku-Klux-Klan (KKK) tagságának létszámában. Az egyik férfi, aki vállalta a kihívást és fellépett a város uralmának átvételére törő szervezet ellen, Ron Stallworth rendőrnyomozó volt. Elindított egy fedett nyomozást a Klánon belül, a tagjává vált, sőt rövid ideig Duke, a klánvezér testőreként szolgált, végül pedig felkérést kapott a Colorado Springsben működő részleg vezetői tisztének betöltésére. A nyomozás és az események iróniája: Stallworth fekete bőrű férfi. A művelet során megvívta a szükséges politikai harcokat a rendőrségen belül, hogy sikeresen ki tudja húzni ezt a "fullánkot". A fekete klántag elmeséli, hogyan győzte le ezeket az akadályokat, és milyen módon érte el ezt a szinte hihetetlen eredményt.

What happens when a black detective goes undercover in the KKK? An extraordinary true story. In 1978, Ron Stallworth is the first black detective in the history of the Colorado Springs Police Department. In the local paper, he finds a classified ad for the Ku Klux Klan - and a P.O. box for interested enquiries. All he's expecting are some racist brochures and a few scraps of information about the white nationalist terrorists in his community. What he gets is a phone call inviting him to join the KKK. So he does. Launching an undercover investigation of incredible audacity, Ron recruits his partner Chuck to play the 'white' Ron Stallworth, while Stallworth himself talks to the Klan over the phone. During his months-long investigation, Stallworth sabotages cross burnings, exposes white supremacists in the military, and even manages to deceive the KKK "Grand Wizard" David Duke himself - dodging danger and reprisal at every turn... Black Klansman is an amazing true story and a rollercoaster of a crime thriller; a searing and timely portrait of a divided America and the extraordinary heroes who dare to fight back.
