If you don’t recognize the name, don’t let that deter you from listening to this episode. If you do recognize the name, you’ll definitely understand why he’s in the courtroom today. David Duke was an influencer before the internet, and the brand that he was promoting and platform he was trying to gain followers on, is not what the world needed (or needs). Duke tried his best to bring the KKK from the backwoods to the boardroom, then took his act to the political stage. How he made it as far as he did baffled us, but we’ll let you be the judge. How did David Duke get his rise to prominence? Who was his target demographic? Is it a common thing for a white supremacist to get face-altering plastic surgery? We’ll dive into all this and more in the David Duke episode of AHC Podcast.
