The Ku Klux Klan held a rally in the Texas town where three white men allegedly dragged a black man to death behind a pickup truck earlier his month. Some 20 Klan members demonstrated, and 50 black activists held a counter-demonstration, in Jasper, Texas. The three white men charged in the crime had ties to White supremacist groups.
