Though I was not aware of this history making event until approximately 8 years ago, I attended Bible study at this church after it had been painted and reopened in 1964. Thanks to those who participated, and tried to participate, in doing a good deed. A portion of the movie “Love Fields,” which was based on southern racial issues concerning a white woman who loved Jackie Kennedy so much,, dressed like her, and was obsessed with going to DC to support her after the death of her husband, President John F. Kennedy, was filmed next door.
Thank you for sharing this. I knew of Klan activity about a decade before this, but was unaware of this incident in the 60’s.
