Introduction
Three Klan
First KKK
The first Klan was founded in 1865 in Pulaski, Tennessee by veterans of the Confederate Army. Although it never had an organizational structure above the locallevel, similar groups across the South adopted the name and methods. The Klan tried to restore white supremacy by threats and violence, including murder, against black and white Republicans.
Second KKKIn 1915, the second Klan was founded and remained a small organization in Georgia. The second KKK preached Americanism and purification of politics, with a heavy tone of racism, anti-Catholicism,anti-Communism, nativism, and anti-Semitism. Some local groups took part in attacks on private houses, and carried out other violent activities. These were generally in the South.
Third KKK
The "KuKlux Klan" name was used by many independent local groups opposing the Civil Rights Movement and desegregation, especially in the 1950s and 1960s. During this period, they often forged alliances withSouthern police departments or with governor's offices.
Today, a large majority of sources consider that the Klan is a "subversive or terrorist organization".
