//The KKK was founded in 1866. 3 million people joined the KKK. Since the mid 20th century the KKK has also been anti-communist. They are classified as a "hate group."// //Led by Confederate General Nathaniel Bedford Forrest, used terrorist tactics to intimidate former slaves.// Roman Catholics, Jews, African Americans, and Foreigners were only the most obvious targets, of the Klans fear mongering. Bootleggers, and divorcees were also targets. During the early 1920s, the Klan helped elect 16 U.S. Senators and many Representatives and local officials. By 1924, when the Klan had reached its peak in numbers and influence, it claimed to control 24 of the nation's 48 state legislatures. The leader of the KKK in the 1920’s was a dentist called Hiram Wesley Evans whose name in the KKK was Imperial Wizard. The white hooded KKK burnt churches of the black population, murdered, raped, castrated etc. Even white people who had contacts with the blacks had reason to fear the KKK.===== //(// http://www.digitalhistory.uh.edu/database/article_display.cfm?HHID=444)
