Funny Book Forensics 253 Superman Vs. the KKK

, , Comment Closed

In honor of the 2020 Election, Greg and Dan listen to some Superman Old Time Radio! We review all 16 episodes of Superman vs the Clan of the Fiery Cross. 
During the review we discuss the history of the KKK in the United States up to the time of the radio serials. The discussion points out the danger of revivalist social movements like the KKK and “Make America Great Again”. We pull no punches in this one just like Superman when he was socking it to the Clan. 
Join us for this needed discussion and please Vote!
