I'd think that working-class men and women were also involved in the
KKK, but if it was like 25% of adult males, we can still investigate
which classes and strata of whites were more represented than others
or whether all classes and strata of them were represented just about
in proportion to their distribution in overall society.  Some scholars
might have already attempted such studies.  Similar studies were done
about support for the Nazis in Germany and so on.
