My Brothers Keeper: Fighting for Religious Freedom & Racial Equality Throughout the 1920s, the Order’s anti-defamation and defense of religious freedom reaches new heights. When the Ku Klux Klan launched a campaign to make students attend public schools, Church leaders enlisted the Knights’. The K of C Historical Commission, meanwhile, worked to overcome racial prejudice in American society, publishing books on the contributions of African-, Jewish-, and German-Americans. Finally, when the Mexican government began persecuting the Church the Knights responded with one voice. The Order launched a $1 million educational campaign to influence American public opinion on the need for a strong stand against the Mexican government’s attacks on the Church.
