Answer:

B. It was an inevitable result of the approach to Reconstruction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Godkin feels that the Ku Klux Klan "was an inevitable result of the approach to Reconstruction."

Godkin described the Ku Klux Klan as like cholera coming out or originated naturally from the filthy areas. And it is a result of how the country managed the whole Reconstruction approach in the South.

However, he concluded that the Ku Klux Klan pose no solution to the problem ravaging the south.
