One key factor that stopped Wegener from fully proving his theory of continental drift was the lack of a plausible mechanism to explain how continents could move. Additionally, Wegener faced resistance from the scientific community who were skeptical of his ideas based on the limited evidence he presented at the time. Lastly, the technological advancements necessary to provide compelling evidence for his theory, such as satellite mapping and deep-sea drilling, were not available during Wegener's time.
The rise of the KKK
A number of factors led to the emergence of the second KKK or KKK of the 1920s. The film "Birth of a Nation," the controversies surrounding alcohol prohibition, a red scare, rising immigration, and rapid social/economic changes in society all contributed to its rise.
The KKK ensured that the Democratic party would exist unopposed throughout the American south for almost 100 years (the "Solid South").

The original KKK was created specifically to terrorize blacks in the southern states, attacking those who dared get try to be "uppity" or "rise above their place." Later, when the KKK was revived in the 20th century, it added Jews and Catholics to its list of targets. The goal was to intimidate all of these unwelcome people, driving them from areas where the KKK was strong. In the southern states, the emphasis was always on terrorizing blacks, but in the north, the KKK gained strength in significant part because of anti-immigrant sentement. Many lynchings were attributed to KKK activity, as well as arson and bombings, frequently targeting black churches.
