Near the end, Candy rages at Curley’s wife’s corpse, blaming her for “mess things up” and caling her a “God damn tramp”.

However, most people only remember the last 50 years in the Klan’s and for good reason, due to how violent and barbaric their actions were. However, American professor Donald Holley’s 2001 academic paper theorizes the possibility that the Klan was not always pictured out this way.
