In the 2018 film BlacKkKlansman, which is based on his experience infiltrating the Ku Klux Klan, Stallworth is portrayed by John David Washington.
Ron Stallworth was born in Chicago, Illinois on June 18, 1953, and raised in El Paso, Texas, after his mother moved the family there. According to a statement in his book, he said "My mother moving our family to El Paso was the best decision she ever made, as it was a far cry from the poverty, gangs, and conflict in the city's South Side, where I would have come of age if she had not left."
Stallworth graduated from Austin High School in 1971, where he was both a member of the student council, and of a district-wide advisory board; he was also voted "most popular".
