The Ku Klux Klan, or KKK, has been around for centuries and doesn’t seem to show signs of disappearing. That is why a Black influencer, Yung Mooch, made a bold move to get to know the group’s leader in a rather daring interview. The Black man trooped down to Arkansas to find the KKK’s current Grand Wizard, and surprisingly, their conversation went unexpectedly.
Yung Mooch uploaded a video on YouTube titled “Inside the Most Racist Town in America! Zinc Arkansas.” The highlight, of course, was the interaction above where Mooch sought out the reason why the particular American town was labeled as the “most racist,” by interviewing Thomas Robb, KKK Grand Wizard of Zinc, Arkansas. Robb, surprisingly, claims he’s “friendly” towards the Black man.
Mooch can be seen and heard asking for some explanations on why the KKK members chose to live away from people of color, him included. Mooch asked, “Would any color of person be welcome to the KKK ‘church?'” Thomas Robb then answered, “No,” and Mooch clarified, “So, strictly just Whites?” something Robb affirmed. The Grand Wizard further explained, “Everybody works off better separately.”
It appears Yung Mooch was able to leave the KKK leader’s property grounds safely and didn’t appear to be physically or psychologically harmed. However, some of the Black locals he interviewed along the way swore that the town of Zinc is “hard to live in,” and one Black man was even called a “porch monkey” or “monkey.”
People Online Criticized Both Mooch and Robb
Right away many people online, particularly in the X comment section, have pointed out some glaring flaws in the KKK leader’s religious views, especially since he claimed to be a devout Christian. As one commenter puts it, “He said we “Christian people” yet he believes people of color can’t be accepted by Jesus. 🤣” while another says, “Soon as he said we Christian members the last question I would’ve left him with is what does he think Jesus would think about his beliefs.”
On the other hand, it appears many people were dissatisfied with the Black influencer’s questions and how he seemingly lacked preparation for the interview. “Bro wanted to interview kkk leader but have no questions planned, 🤡,” jokes a commenter, with another echoing the sentiment, saying, “bro risked his life for this interview and still came unprepared 😭.” With how Mooch’s video went trending, however, hopefully it draws more attention from other influencers or interviewers who might want to shed more light on the matter.
