| How New Castle Catholics Took on the Klan—and Won |
In the summer of 1923, the Ku Klux Klan staged a cross-burning at a farm outside New Castle. They expected the usual spectacle—hooded guards, circled automobiles, flames lighting up the night.
They didn't expect the Catholics to charge.
"All hell broke loose." Fifty people were injured. One Klansman drove his car into the crowd, then fled town that same night. According to local lore, nobody ever saw him again.
It was the beginning of the end for the Klan in Delaware.
