The Ku Klux Klan would burn crosses and plant them near homes. Other scare tactics included beatings, rapings, and lynchings.

The Ku Klux Klan, KKK, targeted African Americans throughout the South, promoting violence and hostility towards them. They did this by burning crosses, lynching and raping.
