"The Truth is No Defense:" George Dale's Legal Fight With the Ku Klux Klan
6pm to 7pm @
Carnegie Public Library
CA-Meeting Room
301 East Jackson Street
George R. Dale, a Muncie newspaper editor in the 1920s, received national attention for his opposition to the Indiana Ku Klux Klan. After years of legal battles, threats of violence, and attacks on the family home, George was elected Mayor of Muncie in 1929. Daisy Dale, the great-great granddaughter of George, tells the story of the legal challenges he faced a century ago.
Daisy Dale is a lifelong Muncie resident, local activist and journalist. With her interest and experience in local politics and history, she maintains the Muncie Post-Democrat, an outlet started by her great-great grandfather George R. Dale in 1921, and now continues its legacy online. She is also a board member of Muncie Queer Alliance and a commissioner for the Muncie Human Rights Commission.
