The Ku Klux Klan limited the rights of African Americans by killing them. The clan also tried to force them back into slavery.
By threatening and intimidating them.
People were inspired to form a new Ku Klux Klan.
This infamous organization is known as the Ku Klux Klan or the KKK for short.
They want America to stay white and purely white. They don't like outsiders and other religions. They mainly hated their to scare African America's because of the changes in society that were integrating African Americans. Many members of regular society joined because well, the law wasn't oppressive enough for them to be happy about the African Americans.
I'm pretty sure your talking about the KKK (Klu Klux Klan).

Ku Klux Klan
There were essentially three different Klans. The first, formed right after the Civil War, persecuted freed African Americans and those who supported their rights. The second, commonly called the Klan of the 1920s, also persecuted African Americans and some immigrants but also moonshiners and bootleggers. The third Klan, that of the 1950s and 1960s, persecuted African Americans and those who promoted their civil rights.
True, it is the Ku Klux Klan.
yes
They used threats and violence in order to prevent African Americans from voting
During Reconstruction, many Southern states implemented a series of discriminatory laws known as Black Codes to limit the civil rights of newly freed African Americans. These laws aimed to restrict their mobility, employment opportunities, and access to public facilities, effectively maintaining a system of racial subjugation. Additionally, practices such as literacy tests, poll taxes, and violence from groups like the Ku Klux Klan further undermined African Americans' rights and participation in the political process.
