The Ku Klux Klan was founded in Pulaski, Tennessee in 1865 by six Confederate veterans to intimidate freed slaves and Republicans. It grew rapidly in the 1920s with over 2 million members but declined due to scandals and opposition to racial integration. Today, the KKK still advocates for white supremacy and uses intimidation and violence against minorities, though its membership has declined significantly.

The controversial decision inflamed tensions around slavery and helped plunge the nation into civil war.

The triangular trade route transported enslaved Africans to the Americas and goods to Africa and Europe. Conditions during the Middle Passage and on plantations were extremely cruel. Resistance took many forms. Abolitionists from different backgrounds advocated for ending the slave trade and slavery.
Reconstruction and the black experience
During Reconstruction, newly freed African Americans sought to reunite families separated by slavery and build new lives through education, employment, and participation in politics. Freedmen's schools educated over 150,000 students by 1869, though many southern whites opposed these schools. While some hoped the government would provide land, most freed people had to work through sharecropping systems or labor contracts that often led to debt.

In the 1950s, the NAACP pursued multiple strategies, including legal challenges to segregation laws that resulted in important Supreme Court victories banning all-white primaries and segregation on interstate buses.

KKK
The Ku Klux Klan, or KKK, is a white supremacist hate group that originated in the Southern United States after the Civil War. The KKK's goals were to terrorize African Americans and promote a white Protestant society. The KKK developed in three periods between 1865-1944 and targeted African Americans, Jews, Catholics and other minority groups through violence and intimidation. While the KKK splintered into smaller groups over time, it remains an active white supremacist organization that uses threats and violence to spread its racist ideology.
Kkkoriginal
The Ku Klux Klan originated in the southern United States after the Civil War. The KKK aimed to reestablish white supremacy and sought to eliminate African Americans, Christians, Jews and other groups. In the 1920s, the second KKK was reformed under William J. Simons and used lynching and violence against racial and religious minorities. The document also discusses the origins and goals of the first, second and third iterations of the KKK throughout American history.
The original ku klux klan
The Ku Klux Klan originated in Pulaski, Tennessee in 1866 and was founded by former Confederate soldiers. It quickly evolved from a social club into a violent secret terrorist organization that used intimidation and violence against Republicans, both black and white, in an effort to overthrow Republican state governments in the South during Reconstruction. The Klan spread throughout the South in the late 1860s, conducting night rides to attack and intimidate blacks, Republicans, and their allies. Their goal was to reverse the political gains of blacks and restore white supremacy across the South through violence and terror.
J:\The Ku Klux Klan
The Ku Klux Klan was a secret society that originated in the Southern United States after the Civil War. It was founded by former Confederate soldiers who used violence and intimidation to oppose the Republican governments that were established during Reconstruction and to prevent blacks from exercising their new rights. The Klan's activities included terrorizing blacks, Republicans, and white sympathizers through acts such as whippings, violence, and murder.
Violence in the south
Lynching and tarring and feathering were violent acts committed against African Americans in the South from the 1860s to the 1920s by racist white mobs. The Ku Klux Klan was formed in the late 1860s and continued through later eras, wearing white robes and hoods while targeting African Americans and supporters of racial equality for attacks. At its peak in the 1920s, the KKK had over 4 million members, though membership declined sharply afterward. Modern KKK groups still exist today with estimated membership between 6,000-8,000, mostly in the Southern U.S., continuing as racist organizations.

Essay about Racism in America
Racism has taken on many forms in America over the past several hundred years. The most substantial or well known is the plight of the African American slaves and the injustices they suffered. Today, a new form of racism is developing; one that has always been around but has now entered the forefront of most Americans minds. This new racism is against members of the Middle Eastern culture and religion. The actions of September 11th did not create a new problem, they just shed light on a problem that we have had for some time. Racism is everywhere in one form or another. To understand it, I think it is necessary to look at the history, causes, and ways to resolve it.

Washington left instructions for the care and education of his former slaves, including financial support for the young and pensions for the elderly. In 1865 on June 19, two years after President Lincoln s Emancipation Proclamation, Union soldiers land at Galveston, Texas, with news that the war
has ended and that the slaves are free. The Emancipation Proclamation had little impact on the Texans due to the minimal number of Union troops to enforce the Emancipation Proclamation. After the Civil War, Congress authorized the creation of six segregated black regiments to serve in the peace time army, under white officers. The Ninth and 10th cavalries and the 38th through 41st infantries were formed. The new cavalries were mainly stationed in the Southwest and the Great Plains, where it was their

Ku klux klan isaure bourgeois
The Ku Klux Klan was founded in 1865 in Pulaski, Tennessee as a social club by former Confederate veterans. By 1870, it had spread across the South and became a vehicle for white resistance to Reconstruction policies that aimed to establish political and economic equality for Black Americans through violence and intimidation of Republican leaders and Black and white voters. The Klan's activities included intimidation, violence and murder targeting Black legislators and it was joined by similar white supremacist groups. After declining, the Klan revived in the early 20th century through cross burnings and rallies denouncing immigrants, Catholics, Jews, African Americans and organized labor as well as bombings and violence during the civil rights movement.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
