That鈥檚 a rather striking picture, isn鈥檛 it? While most people try to avoid the KKK, Southern blues musician Daryl Davis has been seeking them out for decades. His goal is simple: He wants to ask questions; He wants to talk.

He spoke to 成人X站 Nights host Zak Burns.

Davis engages conversation by actually attending rallies and talking to Klan members in person. Some resist and become violent. He鈥檚 had a knife pulled on him. However, others agree, and that鈥檚 where Davis thinks progress begins.

The KKK is no longer a centralized organization. Many white supremacists feel the United States of America was founded by and for white people, and any non-Aryan should leave the country or be dealt with by force. Some beliefs are less extreme among the Klan, only calling for segregation. There has been an evolution and splintering among these many factions in recent years.

But Davis makes a direct correlation between the nation’s traditional white supremacists and the modern version: the alt-right.

He says most people who join these groups are just followers, looking for somewhere to belong. Through discussion, however, he tries to get to the root of their bigotry.

He doesn鈥檛 try to change their minds, but many do. Davis says he has made friends through the process of interviewing members of the Klan throughout the country.

As far as racial relations in America today, Davis asserts that there is a need to talk to people with whom we disagree and have a discussion.

It鈥檚 these discussions with Daryl Davis that have led to many Klansmen becoming former Klansmen.

鈥淲hen two enemies are talking, they鈥檙e not fighting,” Davis said. “It鈥檚 when the talking ceases that the ground becomes fertile for violence. So we want to keep this conversation going.鈥�
