The Symbol of the Unconquered: A Story of the Ku Klux Klan

THE SYMBOL OF THE UNCONQUERED is a response, of sorts, to D. W. Griffith’s THE BIRTH OF A NATION. In Oscar Micheaux’s rendition, the Klan (here renamed the Knights of the Black Cross) is depicted as a gang of common thieves using violence and intimidation to steal a prospector’s valuable property.

Starring Iris Hall, Walker Thompson, Lawrence Chenault
