Out of Stone tells the story of Stone Mountain, GA, a small community not far from Atlanta, that was the center of the largest Ku Klux Klan revival during the 20th century. Though it would seem to be a place of racial hatred and discrimination, the citizens of Stone Mountain tell a different story.
