Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Ku Klux Klan of the early 1920s was known for being anti-immigrant, anti-Catholic, anti-Jewish, and anti-black. This was a significant shift from the Klan of the Reconstruction era which was solely focused on suppressing and intimidating black people. The Klan's message of bigotry resonated with white Protestant Americans across the country, not just in the Deep South. The Klan also continued to use violence and intimidation, despite attempts to distance themselves from it. Thus, option A is the best choice.
