June 14th, 1994. Geraldo Rivera on his namesake talk show, this episode titled “Leaving Hate Behind”. Amid the spate of racist crimes sweeping the country, we talk to Dominick Bruno, a former member of the racist ‘SS Action Group’ who left that life. In doing so he turned over information to the FBI on crimes committed or going to be committed by his former compatriots.
On stage are representatives of the ‘Aryan Racial Loyalist’ party out of Cleveland Ohio, one just 18 years old. In the audience are others affiliated with the KKK, including a man who introduces himself as head of the Klan bureau of investigation, the secret service of the Klan.
“If I was an informer, I’d be dead, just the way you otta be….”
KKK membership is generally kept secret by the people participating.
This day in Geraldo’s show history.
