The Ku Klux Klan, founded in the late 1860’s, experiences three major surges in popularity promoting ideals such as white supremacy, white nationalism, Nativism, anti-immigration, and anti-communism.

The first era of Ku Klux Klan experienced a rise in popularity in the late 1800’s with the intent of overthrowing Republican state governments in the South and ensuring that newly-freed southern African Americans did not vote. In 1871 their membership was oppressed by federal law enforcement (1871 Ku Klux Klan Act signed by President Grant to combat the KKK and other white supremacy groups).  

The second Ku Klux Klan group flourished nationwide in the 1920’s on the platform of pro-prohibition and anti-Catholicism and anti-Jewish feelings. They experience a diminished population in the late 1920’s (around the time of the Great Depression; a time of mass American economic hardship).  

The modern-day third wave of the Ku Klux Klan came about in the late 1950’s opposing the civil rights movement. Current membership, as of 2016, amounts to an estimated 3,000-6,000 active members.

sertanlavr [38]

The correct answer is: " organized labor electricity of rural areas"

Democrat Talmadge ruled as conservative of the south and vehemently attacked the nationalization of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and the New Deal. He opposed favorable policies for blacks (President Roosevelt did not introduce any civil rights measure), agricultural programs and humanitarian aid programs such as the Construction Progress Administration and the Civil Conservation Corps. Talmadge tried to form a regional coalition, organizing a national tour to prepare for a challenge to FDR in 1936. His 'Southern Committee to defend the Constitution' organized a convention in Macon, Georgia, in January 1936 that brought together fragments of the old P. long coalition.
