Beyond the Valley of Ashes is a newsletter excavating the Ku Klux Klan in Queens NYC in the 1920s. I have spent the last few years hunting evidence and it seemed at first that little to none had survived. I am now writing-up what I have found.

In this newsletter you will find original research about the Klan in New York, discussions of other scholarly efforts, contextual material, errant adventures, stuff that will have to be deleted, sideshow curios and more.

I hope my work here will interest those who want to know what happened. If you have any questions or would like to discuss my work, please leave a comment or get in touch.
