The KKK used fear as a tool keep blacks in America changing their social status they were given after slavery.

Yes, very true. So when people ask you "why are black people behind economically?" think about the south. blacks were developing businesses

in places like Mississippi, but they were terrorized, pre-taliban.

So, then you have a great exodus from the south to the north, where oppression

is different, more 'social' than outright violent. This had a great impact on creating

a strong foundation for blacks to capitalize off of.
