As the title suggests this song is about the hate group the Ku Klux Klan. This song features very powerful lyrics about the pure hate that the Klan member have towards people of color, but throughout the song there is a sense of unity between people of color and to fight the violence with peace. This song is along the same lines as several Bob Marley songs. There is a very powerful political message in the song and one that people in America both recognized and respected. While Steel Pulse never reached the large audience that Bob Marley did, they still were very influential in reggae circles and are widely known as one of the best reggae acts of all time.
