The National Museum of the Ku Klux Klan (NMKKK) is proud to announce the creation of a comprehensive digital archive, a groundbreaking initiative designed to make the museum's extensive collection of Ku Klux Klan-related artifacts, documents, and records accessible to a global audience. This digital archive is a vital resource for researchers, educators, students, and the general public who seek to understand the complex history of the Klan and its impact on American society. By digitizing our collection, we ensure that these materials are preserved for future generations while also making them readily available for study and reflection. However, due to the sensitive and often disturbing nature of some content, certain items within the archive may not be suitable for public display or general access.

Our digital archive features high-resolution images, detailed descriptions, and searchable metadata, allowing users to explore the collection with ease. This platform is designed to be an educational tool, offering insights into the Klan's origins, operations, and influence across different periods in history. The archive also includes rare and previously inaccessible materials, providing a more comprehensive understanding of the Klan's role in shaping the social and political landscape of the United States. As part of our commitment to education and public awareness, the NMKKK's digital archive serves as a critical resource in the ongoing effort to confront and learn from this dark chapter in American history.
