1.) First came suffrage. Then came the Women of the Ku Klux Klan.
The WKKK was independent of the Klan and just as committed to bigotry. One researcher says the 19th Amendment made it possible.
“The WKKK formed on the heels of the women’s suffrage movement, itself rife with racism. Blee, a dean and sociology professor at the University of Pittsburgh who researches extremist right-wing and racist social movements, authored the book “Women of the Klan: Racism and Gender in the 1920s” — published in 1991 and again in 2009, with a new preface. In it, she argues that the very expansion of White women’s access to the franchise laid the foundation for a hate group that was “by women, for women and of women.” Some high-ranking WKKK leaders had also chaired local campaigns for suffrage, and as women’s political opportunities expanded, many felt their role in the Klan should too.
The early 1900s were dotted with white symbolism and supremacy. White suffragist suits were not only designed for starkness, but to emphasize femininity that many labeled suffragists as devoid of, undercutting them as mannish and ugly.
The color white, unmistakably, is also a symbol of purity. As Blee points out, Klan propaganda has a throughline of protecting the purity of the race, but more explicitly, that of White women, who were baselessly depicted as at-risk of assault, as more Black men were freed from the binds of slavery.”

2.) A Brief History of the Women’s KKK
The Women’s KKK, an affiliated-but-separate racist organization for white Protestant women, courted members through an insincere “empowerment feminism.”
“This second Klan saw the creation of the Women’s KKK, an affiliated but separate organization specifically for white Protestant women. The early history of the WKKK was beset by intra-Klan squabbles: one male Klan leader started the Kamelias, a women’s white supremacy group, to augment his own power, while another allied with a women’s secret society called The Queens of the Golden Mask. The Golden Mask eventually won out and became the WKKK, which received its first official charter in Little Rock, Arkansas, in 1923. At its peak, historian Kathleen M. Blee explains in Feminist Studies, the WKKK had chapters in every state, with special interest in Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania, and Arkansas.
Like the male version of the KKK, the WKKK had all the hierarchical (and, ironically, very Roman Catholic) trappings: the Imperial Commander, the Klaliffs, Klokards, Kligrapps, Klabees, and the Klexter/Klarogos, who enforced Klan conduct, initiated new members, collected dues, and planned events.
All of these roles and activities were filtered through the lenses of racism, nationalism, xenophobia, and a desire to preserve the family and combat what they perceived as moral decay.
With a few exceptions, such as a 1924 riot in which WKKK members paraded around with clubs, the WKKK did not engage in the lynching and other acts of violence of their male counterparts. This lack of physical violence has led many historical commentators to view WKKK members, and indeed all women involved in racist movements, as shadowy, inconsequential figures lurking behind the male actors. “

Cincinnati police officer and former reality TV figure caught on camera using racist slur
CPD Officer Rose Valentino, who regularly appeared in the 2011 TLC series "Police Women of Cincinnati," was caught saying "F---ing (n-word), I f---ing hate them!" as she punched the steering wheel of her squad car on April 5, according to an internal affairs probe.
According to the internal affairs report, Valentino explained that she was agitated by a crowd of cars, lining up to pick up students at Western Hills University High School, that didn't move when she activated her lights and siren.
She was particularly angry when a Black "male student walked by and gave Officer Valentino the middle finger," according to the report.
"This is a hard job and I was getting to a point where I was really being affected by it," she told investigators, according to the report. "I have been on for fourteen years."...
