Amerika Birle\u015fik Devletleri’nin ikonik simgelerinden biri olan Mount Rushmore, karanl\u0131k bir ge\u00e7mi\u015fe sahip heykelt\u0131ra\u015f Gutzon Borglum’un bir hayalinin \u00fcr\u00fcn\u00fcyd\u00fc.

Borglum’un Klan’daki ba\u011flant\u0131lar\u0131, Konfederasyon generalleri Robert E.

Ku Klux Klan, Mount Rushmore’un finansman\u0131 ve in\u015fas\u0131nda etkili oldu. Borglum’un Klan ile ili\u015fkisi, proje i\u00e7in fon bulmas\u0131na yard\u0131mc\u0131 oldu ve ona bir destek\u00e7i a\u011f\u0131na eri\u015fim sa\u011flad\u0131.<\/p>\n\n
