Answer:

In 1920, the Ku Klux Klun Clan first existed in the South after the end of CW because white slave owners opposed the end of slavery and fought to keep African American people under their control and maintain a strict racial hierarchy. Members of the KKK believed that immigration, religious differences and progressive belief were harmful for the society and "un- American like" for their "pure belief"

Though, the Klan's membership decline in 1870s, it was revived and gain more popularity when the movie "Birth of the Nation" was released because it depicted the KKK as heroic saviors of a post-war South destroyed by Northern carpetbaggers and freed black savages. The film widely highlights the idea that the Klan was there to save the South ravaged by the freed black ravages violating their white woman. A racist myth which is sadly, accepted as historical facts.

Up until now, these racist organizations continued to gain popularity because of people's bitterness towards immigration, industrialization, and urbanization. The Klansmen belief that immigrants steal away their jobs and dilutes their racial purity is sadly, an acceptable reason for them to causes terrors and harm.

Which is one reason why the United Nations was stronger than the League of Nations? It had a security council to respond to glob
ICE Princess25 [194]

The correct answer is A

The objective of the League of Nations was to keep peace and many countries joined after WWI, but its main flaw was the lack of authority to enforce the decisions reached. It is significant to mention that for example the US was not part of the League of Nations.

<u>When the UN was built after WWII</u>, the Security Council was in fact the organ specifically created in order to address the flaws of the former League, and to be in charge of keeping international peace and security. Anyway, its activity was mostly paralized during the Cold War. After the dismantling of the URSS it has been operating and sending peacekeeping military missions all over the world.

The main functions of the Security Council are the following: the establishment of peacekeeping operation and  of international sanctions, and the authorization of military interventions.
