The information is already in the article in the Southern_Poverty_Law_Center#Leadership_upheaval_amid_harassment_allegations section and the first sentence of the section below that. I do think the information should be included in the article (and it is reliably sourced), but I don't think it should be repeated in the lead section of an organisation that was started over 50 years ago.

I don't know much about reasonable people but here is a reliable source that calls the KKK a "white supremacist movement". https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2015/jul/14/ku-klux-klan-white-supremacy-tv-review Polygnotus (talk) 14:21, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
I am requesting an edit to change all instances of the name "Joseph J. Levin Jr." to a link for his upcoming Wikipedia page, which currently redirects here (Joseph J. Levin Jr.). On Help:Starting a new page, it is suggested that before starting a new page, we first create a red link so that "right from the start, the page will be linked from at least one other place on the wiki."
Given that his most well-known achievement is the creation of the SPLC, and that both other founders have their own pages, it seems that placing the link on this page would be the best place to start. Thank you! Neugeou (talk) 03:53, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
