Best Answer

Originally, the KKK was formed as a resistance group to the Union occupation of the south and the often oppressive policies of reconstruction. The KKK did not originally form as a racist organization (though many were). They resisted the North by intimidating and occasionally lynching anyone who supported the Republican party who were decidedly anti-south. They were recognized as a racist organization because most of the republicans happened to be colored, and the description stuck with them.
