Protests Meet Klan Rally Amid Permit Dispute in Maryland
Protesters, including white and Black members, attempt to enter a Klan rally at Kelly farm but are denied access by private property rules. NAACP leaders cite a court test of property rights versus civil rights, while county officials defend permits for public gatherings. Police say access was not guaranteed, and the event proceeded with 23 Klansmen in robes as observers watched from nearby homes.
