In the 1930s, when teens Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster were coming of age, jobs were scarce, Nazis were on the rise in Europe, and the KKK was terrorizing innocent American families. The world needed a hero, one who would fight for the rights of all people, stomp out oppression, and restore hope. Together they created the character Superman, who became an enduring figure in comic books, newspapers, radio, television, and movies, as well as a force for real, positive change.Superman's influence was never more groundbreaking than in the spring of 1946. Millions of children and adults tuned their radios to the Adventures of Superman radio show entitled "Clan of the Fiery Cross," crafted from secret information given to the show's producers by spies inside the Klan Scholastic

For nearly a decade during the 1940’s, Stetson Kennedy infiltrated and informed on the criminal activities of the Ku Klux Klan, taking their secrets to the airwaves through the Super Man Radio Show and testifying in court against the Klan. Kennedy reported those experiences in his book, The Klan Unmasked, published first in England and decades later by University Presses of Florida. He ran as a write-in candidate for the U.S. Senate in 1950 on a platform of “not white supremacy but right supremacy.”
