希拉里的美国：民主党的秘密历史Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party Movie Script

I knew exactly who I had to go see.

Carol Swain, professor at Vanderbilt Law School, is one of America's leading experts on the history of race relations and civil rights.

Blacks have been used to oppression from America and also from the Democratic Party.

And it's been hard for me to accept, because I was a Democrat for most of my life.

What made you change?

It was a number of different things.

Some of it had to do with me learning more about the history of the Democratic Party and just watching how they used blacks for their agenda.

The Democratic Party was the party of slavery.

And after slavery was abolished in 1865, it was in total ruins.

Seems like they needed, uh, a new racket.

Well, they came up with one.

The Ku Klux Klan was founded by Nathan Bedford Forrest.

- White man's country.

- [all] Let the white man rule! [Swain] He was the first grand wizard of the Ku Klux Klan and a pledged delegate to the Democratic Convention.
-让白人统治！[Swain]他是三K党的第一位大巫师，也是民主党大会的承诺代表。

The whole purpose of the Democratic Party was to reestablish white supremacy.

In fact, in 1868, the party platform was ''This is a white man's country.

Let a white man rule.'' Notice how they portrayed blacks.

The lily-white Democrat against the black Republican.

Why were blacks such a threat to the Democratic Party?

Blacks were the majority in several Southern states.

They were able to send numerous people to the state legislatures.

They had 22 members of Congress.

And so this was a nightmare for the Democrats because, all of a sudden, they were being ruled by black Republicans, and they reacted with brutality.

The party had its own war machine, and its targets were blacks and white Republicans, like Congressman James Hinds, the first sitting member of Congress assassinated.

[gunshots, all screaming] [Swain] During the Klan's long reign of terror, they killed over 3,000 blacks and over 1,000 white Republicans.
