The contingent of the Ku Klux Klan that has applied to hold a July rally in Charlottesville is reportedly led by an FBI informant who has been charged in the stabbing of another Klan member.

In December, authorities in North Carolina arrested Chris Barker, the self-identified leader, or "imperial wizard," of the Loyal White Knights of the KKK, based in Pelham, North Carolina. That same group has applied to hold a rally on the steps of the Charlottesville Circuit Court on July 8, as first reported by The Daily Progress on Monday.

The rally, which it is estimated will have 100 attendees, has been denounced by city officials and criticized by both left- and right-wing groups.
