Author of Black Klansman


Patrolman Ron Stallworth (1975) at the age of 22  the First Black and, at that time, the youngest detective in the history of the Colorado Springs PoliceDepartment.
 
 
Inside a Black Man's Mind
 
 
 
 


     I was able to “sting” (con) the local Organizer of the Colorado Springs chapter of the KKK, the Grand Dragon (equivalent to a state leader) for the Colorado Klan, and David Duke who, at


the time (1978-79), was arguably the premier national leader of the various KKK factions in the

country.  He was based in the New Orleans, Louisiana area, and held the title of Grand Wizard.  They all believed I was to quote David Duke “…an intelligent white man….” and, as a result, I was able to gain their trust and subsequently obtain membership into their faction of the Klan.  So successful was the “sting” that the Grand Dragon sought my advice on a couple of decisions concerning him and the Colorado Springs chapter and the Local Organizer,  a Specialist 5 in the Army who was in the process of being discharged, avidly put my name up to the chapter membership for a vote to replace him.

    1. Thanks for your valid question TopKattzz and Luren. I took an oath and standby that oath with other brothers and sister in law enforcement. If we just keep these acts a secret, will we ever see a positive movement or change within these organizations? It's a constant struggle. Ron S

  5. Hello Mr. Stallworth!
    I just saw you on Politics Nation with Al Sharpton.
    Nice interview.
    But I did something very similar to what you did in 1977.
    As a reporter in Columbus, Ohio - I tried to join the Klan.
