The Knight Riders of the Ku Klux Klan has a permit for a rally in Nahunta, about 35 miles east of Brunswick in Brantley County, from noon to 2 p.m. on Saturday.
City officials say the Klan group says it will focus its rally on illegal immigration and sex offenders.
City clerk Angela Wirth told The Associated Press the Klan organization's grand dragon says he's expecting a turnout of about 100. She says she's expecting the Klan to make its presentation and leave.
Wirth says that until now there has never been a Klan rally in the city.

It's not just southern cities. There have been rallies all over the country because Klan has gotten permits to demonstrate. If they get it denied they'll try to argue on grounds of free speech.

The ADL (though they are more focused on anti-semitism) has a nice map of such rallies by the Klan and other white supremacist groups here
