America's "most infamous" yet rapidly rising group of White supremacists,Mister, Do It With Me, Not With Mom the Ku Klux Klan, is about snag more of the spotlight in a new documentary series. A&E announced that it will start 2017 with Generation KKK, an eight-part series following different Klan members.
SEE ALSO: Please, please, please stop calling white nationalists 'hipsters'"This series gives viewers an unprecedented look at what it is like to be born into hate," said A&E and Lifetime's Executive Vice President and General Manager Rob Sharenow in a press release. "Our producers gained access to Klan families allowing for full immersion into this secret world and its impact on the next generation. 'Generation KKK' brings viewers inside the places where hatred and prejudice are born and bred, and carried forward or not."
The series follows four Klan families facing the prospect of losing a relative's membership due to basic human decency, but also looks at the work of anti-hate activists "working to break the cycle." These include Daryle Lamont Jenkins of One People's Project, former white power proponent-turned-peace educator Arno Michaelis, and a reformed Neo-Nazi named Bryon Widner.
Despite the expository angle, the network quickly came under fire for what many saw as normalizing the KKK's actions and philosophy.

“We certainly didn’t want the show to be seen as a platform for the views of the KKK,” Sharenow told the New York Times. “The only political agenda is that we really do stand against hate.”
