It looked like a 1948 Pontiac in one of the pictures. Nice car.

I'm not originally from GA, so I have no defensive "it's our heritage" statement to make. I will say that you're bringing this up like some new revelation, when it's a very well known aspect of the history of Stone Mountain and of Georgia from the early and mid-20th century.

The Klan had a big presence and used Stone Mountain as a rally location for many years. We all know that Georgia and the south in general has a racist past, had Jim Crow laws, and that the KKK was a infamous part of that racist past.

Are you posting this just to start another race thread?

Not at all,i find the video rare and important to look at, the people,the cars,the atmosphere.
It's like a video documents were images are important documents about the way people look and dress.
Any rare and old video that i find,i will post it and read comments.
