It would be great if we could know who belongs to the KKK but that will never happen for obvious reasons.

That may have been true in the time Oprah Winfrey grew up, but I will bet that there are many kids under 18 or so who are quite color blind. Some who are still very racist though. It really depends on teachers, friends, religious leaders and the like.
Recent events in FL of a somewhat political nature though certainly flamed a lot of bigots out of the woodwork. Probable because some national politicians were throwing lighter fluid on it.
