Both the Ku Klux Klan and Black Codes were tools used in the post-Civil War United States to maintain white supremacy and control over African Americans. The Klan employed violence and intimidation to suppress Black civil rights, while Black Codes were laws enacted to restrict the freedoms and economic opportunities of Black individuals. Together, they aimed to reinforce racial segregation and undermine the progress made during Reconstruction. Both were part of a broader system of systemic racism that sought to restore pre-war social hierarchies.
