Senate nominee Herschel Walker repeatedly shared story resembling John Lewis encounter with former Klansman
"Republican nominee Herschel Walker’s campaign for U.S. Senate in Georgia has repeatedly been marred by falsehoods. To date, the retired football player has been caught lying about fathering a “secret” child, being a member of law enforcement, a claim that he graduated from college, and even his business practices.
A recent review by theGrio of past statements made by Walker during interviews between 2020 and 2021 reveals that Walker repeatedly shared several versions of a story about an encounter with a former member of the Ku Klux Klan that resembles one that has been publicly shared by the late former Georgia U.S. Rep. John Lewis.
On June 2, 2020, Walker appeared on “The Bigun Rick Show” as a guest and told viewers that an ex-Klansman approached him following a college football game while he was a freshman at the University of Georgia. Walker claimed the former white supremacist said to him, “Hershel, I was one of the biggest Klansmen here in the state of Georgia, but I wanted to tell you I’m sorry. You changed my way of thinking.”"
