Question

IL MARK BRAINLIST:

Answer 1

1. The KKK contributes to polarization which means a person's stance on an issue. They would kill or be very violent to anyone that doesn't agree with them. The Ku Klux Klan liked the South where the blacks weren't as important as the whites. The sectional alignment of the parties mattered to them because they didn't want anything to do with the Republicans and possibly even kill them. They caused terror and tried to stop the African Americans from voting.

2. They struck fear into people's hearts. In turn they kept alot of Republicans from voting.

3.Congress passed the Force Acts of 1870 which required the South to fully recognize the guarantee of equal protection stipulated by the Fourteenth Amendment. Since the Force Acts inadequately addressed persisting violence, Congress passed the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871 soon thereafter. The Ku Klux Klan Act was the first piece of US legislation that made individuals and states punishable under federal law for hate crimes or disenfranchising citizens on the basis of race. President Ulysses S. Grant used the Act to challenge Klan activity, most prevalent in South Carolina.
