Following a long legal dispute, a black church in South Carolina has been declared the legal owner of a building which currently houses a store peddling Ku Klux Klan merchandise.
Kennedy and his church had ownership of the building transferred to them in 1997 after the previous owner, a Klansman, quarreled with his fellow Klan members, particularly the store proprietor. The Klansman gave the building to Kennedy’s church after the two developed a “spiritual relationship,” according to the judge in the case.
Awkward.
