A report released by the Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith revealed a significant increase in Ku Klux Klan activity across the United States. The study showed that Klan membership in 22 states grew from 8,000 to 10,000 over a 20-month period ending in November 1979. Additionally, the number of Klan sympathizers surged from 30,000 to 100,000, signaling a troubling rise in white supremacist influence during that time.
