A street in Malverne named for a Ku Klux Klan leader now has a new name.
The street had been named after Paul Lindner, a 1920s village founder who also led cross burnings and KKK rallies on Long Island and in Queens.
Village of Malverne unanimously votes to change name of street currently named after KKK leader"Our village motto is, 'From oaks to acorns,' so acorn represents the children that attend the school on this block," she said."I felt like this was justice for my ancestors and anyone that was affected by the KKK going forward."
