    I found this a couple of years ago, covered in dust and didn`t know what I had till I did a lot of cleaning! I know this might be offensive to some, but it is history to me-(I didn`t take the photo, I just found it) I searched a lot for another like it and also for the photographer, found photos of other places in D.C. that day, but not this one. I am hoping that this might be seen by someone who might have more info on this particular picture. I cleaned it as much as I dared and put it back in the frame it was in. Thanks for looking!! Rob

      Your'e right to post and preserve it Rob as it is a part of history just not something to be celebrated.

      Looks to be the 1925 march where 35K paraded aa a show of force. Must've been a scary sight! This was the peak of their organization. You can see in this clip I found, there's one shot where they are in front of the Washington monument

      Not sure if it'll work..search"40,000 Klansmen march through Washington (1925)" and look for the britishpathe video

      dav2no1, saw the film, my photo was probably taken sometime during that clip! Closest I`ve came to finding anything like it. Thanks!!! Rob ( glad you mentioned dems., seems like they blame the other party now)
