They saw themselves as vigilantes restoring justice, and they used intimidation, threats of violence, and actual violence to pre

vent African Americans, immigrants, Catholics, Jews, liberals, and progressives from attaining wealth, social status, and political power. KKK members wore elaborate costumes with distinctive white hoods to mask their identities, and held nocturnal rallies to plot acts of terror and foment hatred against people deemed not “truly” American—basically, anyone who was not white and Protestant. The activities of Klansmen ranged from issuing threats and burning crosses to outright violence and atrocities such as tarring and feathering, beating, lynching, and assassination.

Answer: The goals of the Ku Klux Klan were to achieve white supremacy and to destroy Congressional Reconstruction.

Explanation:

The Ku Klux Klan was formed by Confederate Army veterans in Pulaski, Tennessee, in 1865.

  • The ultimate goal of this club was racial segregation and white supremacy. Initially, KKK focused on preventing African Americans from gaining wealth and reaching equality, but they gradually turned against immigrants, Catholics, Jews, and other social groups. Their philosophy was that anyone who is not 'truly' American is their enemy.
  • Between 1869 and 1871, the goal of KKK was to destroy Congressional Reconstruction by murdering black people and those active in Republican politics.

What values in today´s American society share similarities with that of the puritants?
OlgaM077 [116]

Thesis 1

The Puritan values that affected American society in both positive and negative ways continue to influence our nation today. The American concept of limited government stems from the Puritan community. Puritans believed that no single person or group of people should be trusted to run the government. The Puritan emphasis on education led to an American school system whereby everyone is taught reading, writing, and arithmetic. Finally, many Americans have adopted the Puritan ethics of honesty, responsibility, hard work, and self-control.

From Puritanism in Old and New England (1955)

By Alan Simpson

Thesis 2

Puritans played an important role in American history, but they no longer influenced American society after the seventeenth century. Although the Puritans came to the New World in search of religious toleration, a basic human right for which the United States is well-known, they refused to accept people who did not share their beliefs. Nor did the Puritans create the form of democracy used by the American government today. Our system of government find its roots in British institutions. Finally, the code of ethics followed by many Americans today originated from the Baptist, Methodist, and Presbyterian faiths rather than the Puritan religion.
