(Daily Mail) – A former Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan who now lives in Belize, alongside the very race of people he fought to segregate, has told Daily Mail Online: ‘I don’t hate blacks… Ain’t that something?’

Breaking his 30-year silence Bill Wilkinson – once the most powerful white supremacist in the world – hit back at claims he is a racist.

Speaking from the sun-drenched hotel resort he owns and where Daily Mail Online tracked him down, Wilkinson said: ‘Don’t call me racist, I don’t hate blacks.

‘I never have hated blacks, I still don’t hate blacks, I don’t hate anyone.’

But in a baffling contradiction Wilkinson added that he had not ‘changed’ since his KKK days. He said: ‘I’m just a Bible-crashing segregationist. I still believe in segregation, that’s how it should be.”
