The original will forever be remembered as the first great motion picture. This one will be forgotten a week or two after being released. Also looks like this new one does a great job showing exactly why the KKK had to be formed, so in that sense it accidentally accomplishes the same thing the first film accomplished intentionally. The KKK were in fact the first capeshit superheroes, they were vigilante crimefighters who struck fear in the hearts of violent blacks and punished them for their crimes.

There was widespread fear in the aftermath of the rebellion, and white militias organized in retaliation against the slaves. The state executed 56 slaves accused of being part of the rebellion. In the frenzy, many non-participant slaves were punished. At least 100 African Americans, and possibly up to 200, were murdered by militias and mobs in the area. Across the South, state legislatures passed new laws prohibiting education of slaves and free black people,[3] restricting rights of assembly and other civil rights for free black people, and requiring white ministers to be present at all worship services.

Probably b8, but here you go:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3kmVgQHIEY

The original was based on a play called the Clansman and tells the story of how the KKK was formed to protect women and society in general from the recently freed slaves who were mostly freed specifically to fuck up the South's shit since some faggoty Union politicians wanted to punish the South for rebelling and knew emancipation would result in blacks running amok, raping white women, trashing their surroundings, etc.

Daily reminder that white people did not start slavery but we did end it. White people were the first in history to realize the atrocity and the affront to God that is slavery, and we stopped it, killing our own people and destroying our own nation in the process, as was necessary. That's the level of compassion and belief in doing what is right that white people have.

Two white children place a white sheet over their heads, and the black children are terrified by the ghostly sight. “The inspiration.” Cameron stands, now ready to act. “The result.

Nah, they were originally formed as a Sons of Malta-style fraternal social club by a bunch of ex-Confederate soldiers, and "ludicrous initiations, the baffling of public curiosity, and the amusement for members were the only objects of the Klan."

This is what happens when you get all your historical knowledge from /pol/ infographics.

>>71263456
This is much truer than many people will today admit. Many municipal and county governments were majority-black in the immediate aftermath of the war, and governed approximately as well as the ANC does today. It was that dysfunction, and in some cases violent chaos, that led to the formation of Redshirt/Klan militia, poll taxes/intimidation, and Jim Crow. 1865-70 was a pretty dark time for the South.

Blacks are simply unfit to govern even themselves, let alone European-style bureaucracies.
>>
>>71266861

1) 34 years is an extremely short span of time in history
2) Are you under the impression I'm saying that was the *only* reason behind the emergence of the KKK as a vigilante group? That slave rebellion was just one of many similar examples of blacks chimping out both before and after the Civil War. These chimpouts were most definitely the motivation for the KKK's emergence and pursuit of extralegal street justice, why the fuck else do you think that happened?
>>
>>71266725

Both The Clansman and The Birth of a Nation is notoriously inaccurate when it comes to the exact events and circumstances under which the Klan was originally formed.
>>
>>71266977

>originally

You see that word you used there? It's the reason why both that and the fact they began operating as a vigilante group are both true things. The one led to the other pretty quickly when they realize their secret society practices frightened superstitious blacks.

Actually it was more to do with general Southern discomfort over Northern Reconstruction legislature, especially the 14th and later 15th Amendments, and the fact that Southern state governments were being controlled by Northern carpetbaggers and the occupying Northern army.

I'm pretty sure more blacks were lynched by klansmen than white northerners, but feel free to correct me with a cited source arguing the opposite.

Well they targeted both but it was a lot easier to get away with violence against blacks than against whites, especially white Northerners. Northerners were still fairly detached from Southern issues and Congress wasn't entirely unified on the issue so the Enforcement Acts of the 1870s weren't upheld everywhere in terms of local law enforcement in every town and county of the South, but it was still very difficult to lynch rich white Northerners and get away with it.

In fact, the reputation of violent lynchings the KKK is now famous for should be more accurately associated not with the 1st Klan but with the 2nd Klan that appeared halfway through the 1910s and lasted until the Second World War. The first Klan's activities usually consisted of attacking black members of the Loyal Leagues with gunfire and intimidating southern Republicans and Freedmen's Bureau workers. They used to threaten lynching but that wasn't standard practice the first Klan, which, by the way, didn't last for very long at all and was already fading into obscurity by the mid-1870s. By the time of the 1877 Compromise the original Klan had all but disappeared. The arguably more dominant white vigilante group that was active during the Reconstruction was the White Man's league active during the 1870s, whose modus operandi was turning Republicans out of office and intimidating freedmen from voting and organising politically.

Pic related is a cartoon from an Alabama independent paper showing the KKK threatening to lynch Ohio carpetbaggers.

It's realistic to say that the original Klan was given a retroactive reputation based on the actions and behaviour of its follower. There was a sort of Southern mania and nostalgia over the original Klan during the period that The Birth of Nation was made and the Second Klan was formed.

This. Besides, probably like 50% of the world's population today has ancestors who were slavers. We shouldn't get over whose grand parents, or great grand parents had slaves because it's not like it's a genetic disposition to be more likely to own slaves. Why does it matter?
