By Lee Gerowitz - Howard TV Prodcuer

Wake up Howard TV fans! Have you ever wondered what it would be like to venture into the home of an Imperial Wizard and Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan? Now you’ll get your chance to do just that because Howard TV recently ventured down to Georgia to shoot an episode of Howard TV Cribs with everyone’s favorite Klansman, Daniel Carver. And guess which producer with a Jewish background was assigned to produce this masterpiece? Shalom, y’all! I must give a warning though: while most of us (hopefully) may not agree with Daniel’s point of view on life and the comments that he makes, he has the right to believe what he wants to believe. This was the attitude I took when shooting at his home. Of course, a sense of humor helps as well. Jewish producers interacting with Klansmen mixes as well as peanut butter and liver on molded whole wheat bread, so I left the “Hey Daniel, I’m Lee, the Jewish producer from Howard TV” part out when arriving at his home. Instead, it was just “Hey Daniel, I’m Lee from Howard TV.” Once that was out of the way, it was time to survey his house, which is approximately two hours outside of Atlanta. The home, which Daniel built himself, sits on about five acres of private property and is probably the exact opposite of how you’d envision it. If you expected a shack that was hosting a reunion of the cast from Deliverance, then you’d be disappointed. Daniel Carver has a nice, modest home. However, the more you look around the more you realize that you’re definitely in the home of a Klansman. And I’m not just talking about the picture of him in his basement in his Klan gear (It was like a prom photo, if you went solo, just way more racist). First thing you notice as you enter Daniel’s private road is the sign across the street that reads “White County.” How appropriate. Once you venture into his front yard, there’s a small bench with a tiny, black statue on it. Oh yeah – the statue is eating a piece of watermelon. Matter of fact, Daniel has several black statues in or around his house. In his dining room, just to the left of the table where his family eats, are a bunch of tiny black dolls. Upstairs is a finished attic where Daniel’s wife keeps the thousands of dolls she collects. Included amongst those dolls is a colored section. That’s right - the lifeless, speechless dolls are even segregated. You’ll also get to see what kind of cars Daniel drives and even the motorcycle that he owns. It must be tough to ride that motorcycle when he’s wearing his Klan robes. Daniel even has a soft side that no one knows about. He has a deer feeder in his backyard where these tiny little deer show up to eat everyday. So, why does a Klansman collect black statues and dolls? And why did he have a 10 pound watermelon in his fridge? You’ll have to watch to find out. So WAKE UP and make sure you tune in to Daniel Carver Cribs, premiering September 4th on Howard TV.
