The Ku Klux Klan of the 1920s expanded its focus beyond just opposing African Americans to include a broader agenda of nativism, targeting immigrants, Catholics, and Jews as well. This era's Klan also embraced a more organized and nationwide presence, capitalizing on the rise of mass media and public rallies to promote its ideology. Additionally, the 1920s Klan sought to influence politics by aligning with mainstream conservative movements and gaining significant political power in various states. In contrast, the Reconstruction-era Klan primarily aimed to suppress Black civil rights and maintain white supremacy in the South.

Most Americans who oppose the Ku Klux Klan embraced the notion of equality and civil rights for all individuals, regardless of race or ethnicity. They believed in the importance of unity and diversity in society, rejecting the Klan's ideology of hate and racial supremacy.

Overall, this opposition was rooted in a commitment to uphold democratic values and human dignity.

No, Charles Sumner was not the leader of the Ku Klux Klan. He was a prominent abolitionist and a Republican senator from Massachusetts known for his strong advocacy for civil rights and opposition to slavery. The Ku Klux Klan, founded in the aftermath of the Civil War, was a white supremacist organization that sought to maintain white dominance and opposed the rights of African Americans. Sumner's work was in direct contrast to the goals of the Klan.

The Ku Klux Klan limited the rights of African Americans by killing them. The clan also tried to force them back into slavery.
