USA. KU KLUX KLAN.

2015. Tennessee. USA. A cross lighting after the wedding of two members of the KKK. For the KKK, the cross symbolizes Jesus Christ lighting their path (though burning the cross is taboo in most sects of Christianity). Through the history of the KKK it has also often been burned on the property of African Americans in order to intimidate them. (KEYSTONE/MAGNUM PHOTOS/Peter van Agtmael/Magnum Photos)
