White southerners who supported Reconstruction were referred to as "Scalawags", while northerners who came south to assist were called "Carpetbaggers,", an equally derisive term inferring they carried everything they owned in a carpetbag and could move quickly. Both groups traveled the South for their own personal economic gain.
