Storyline

Musician Daryl Davis has an unusual hobby. He's played all over the world with legends like Chuck Berry and Little Richard, but it's what Daryl does in his free time that sets him apart. Daryl likes to meet and befriend members of the Ku Klux Klan -- something few black men can say. In his travels, he's collected robes and other artifacts from friends who have left the Klan, building a collection piece by piece, story by story, in hopes of eventually opening a "Museum of the Klan."



Short Review

It's an uncomfortable and frustrating yet important reminder that systems and institutions have left a far reaching historical, emotional, and psychological stain that the path to deconstruction is not an easy or quick one.
