Initially - around the time of Reconstruction - the Republican Party was considered radical.
Radical Republicans believed blacks were entitled to the same political rights as whites. They believed the Confederates were traitors and that they should be punished for their roles in the American Civil War. Following Lincolnâ??s assassination, they vigorously opposed President Johnsonâ??s lenient approach to the south and engaged in a fierce political battle with him.
The Republican Party currently holds a majority of seats in both houses of the South Carolina state legislature.
The AWB political party stands for 'Afrikaner Resistance Movement' which was formed by Eug̩ne Terre'Blanche in 1973. AWB is a white supermacist and non-facist group which has received much publicity across South Africa and Internationally.
