Historian surprised to discover history of racism in her hometown | News, Sports, Jobs

Special to the Independent SLAYTON Anita Gaul never imagined that the Ku Klux Klan had a history in her hometown, not until she came across a 1920s newspaper article. While doing research for a history book she wrote about women from southwestern Minnesota who played a role in World War I, she noticed an item from the former Lake Wilson Pilot about a cross burning that took place in nearby Chandler. It became a first step toward tracing 1920s KKK activity throughout the region. She came back to the topic later, when she had time for some extra research. She is employed as a history instructor for Minnesota West Community and Technical College.
