Undercover with the KKK

This 1979 Made for Television Movie is based on a true story and stars former star football player "Dandy Don" Meredith as an FBI informant who infiltrates the Ku Klux Klan in order to gain information to help prosecute Klan members. Tom Rowe (Meredith) uses his small town Alabama connections to work his way into the Klan, but soon finds being a paid informant will ensnare him more than Klan member rallies. Rowe is forced to prove his loyalties to both the Klan and the FBI, involving himself in some of the racially motivated violence the FBI is attempting to put to rest. Of course all of this double-dealing puts a strain on his marriage and family, not to mention the physical risks of the endeavor. Newly remastered.
