Answer:

The KKK resurged not only targeting African Americans, but any immigrants who were in America creating more racial tensions. These tensions created a nasty election in 1928, tension from the whites in the South and the growing melting pot of the North.

Step-by-step explanation:

The KKK, founded by Confederate soldiers, opposed Radical Reconstruction. They targeted Freedmen's Bureau schools as they believed African Americans should not be educated. burned the schools down and attacked and killed white teachers and black students. Targeted carpetbaggers and scalawags. They saw them all as a threat to the power of white Southerners.
