Twenty-Six: 'Clash in the Streets': When Notre Dame took on the KKK

from Onward to Victory: A Notre Dame Football Podcast

Remember hearing about how Notre Dame students took on the Ku Klux Klan in the streets of South Bend in 1924? You don't? Well, buckle up and prepare for an incredibly interesting and compelling episode of Onward to Victory!  By the 1920's the Klan's corrosive, bigoted influence had infiltrated nearly every corner of Indiana. Statewide Klan leaders set South Bend in the cross-hairs, home of one of the most reputable Catholic universities in the country. A perfect target for the Klan and their anti-Catholic stance (one of many groups targeted at this time).  Would the students just roll over, or would there be some resistance? Listen to find out!
