Abstract

In the 1920s, the Klu Klux Klan briefly achieved the height of its power: not in the Deep South, but in the culturally liminal state of Indiana. Using never-before-seen images from the era, KLANDIANA is a direct address from a native son to the Indiana Klan's long-dead leader, D.C. Stephenson. The film explores the origin and horrors of Klan rule, and the legacy of historical amnesia that emerged in the era's wake.
