ACLU Backs Klanwatch
The director of the
Civil Liberties Union of
Alabama says the
Southern Poverty Law
Center is providing “a
very usefid service” in
compiling dossiers on
Ku Klux Klan mem
bers.
Mary Weidler said in
an interview Wednesday
she does not believe the
“Klanwatch” project
violates the con
stitutional rights of Klan
members because “it’s
not like the government
spying on the Klan.”
“It’s no different

from a credit reporting
service,” she said. “In
terms of there being
information available to
the public on what these
people stand for and
what their current ac
tivities are, I think.it
provides a very useful
service.”
The Montgomery
based Southern Poverty
Law Center says it’s
putting together detailed
files on Klan members
and monitoring their
activities to expose the
Klan as a “violent”
group.
The director of the
law center, Morris Dees,
said his group is setting
up dossiers on all Klan
members and plans to
turn the information
over to law enforcement
authorities and jour
nalists.
Mrs Wiedler said she
supports the project
because she views the
Klan as a “terrorist”'
organization.
The ACLU in the past
has gone to court to
defend the Klan’s right
to free speech, but, Ms.
Wiedler said, “Idon’t
think that right includes
carrying weapons down
main street in Mon
tgomery.”
