GOP Stapleton family donated $$, CO museum removed ancestor (Denver mayor in 20s) from KKK display
[Madelaine Schmidt @ The Colorado Times Recorder as linked at rightwingwatch.org]
The mayor was among the political beneficiaries of the major role the KKK played in Denver and CO in the 20s.
The article is extremely interesting, containing info about yet another state near-ruled by the KKK in the 20s and the power of $$ to determine what useums display. The article also mentions the museum's failure to seek Native American input for its depiction of the Sand Creek Massacre and of Japanese-Americans for its depiction of the CO WWII internment camp.

I think this happened sometime in the 60s.
Most of her friends did the same.

Isn't David Hogg's fist salute the salute the 1968 black Olympic winners gave in Mexico City?
What RWNJs are calling a 'Nazi salute'?
