Description

He once wore the robe of a Klansman.

She once called him her enemy.

But together, they changed not just a city — but each other.


In this episode of Purpose, we uncover the extraordinary true story of CP Ellis, a former Ku Klux Klan leader whose life was radically transformed through an unexpected friendship with Black civil rights activist Ann Atwater.


It’s a story of prejudice… and redemption.

Of fear… and courage.

Of what happens when you finally sit down and listen to the person you were taught to hate.


This is not a story about perfection.

It’s a story about the power to unlearn, to heal, and to choose a new purpose — even if the world remembers you for your old one.
