Answer: The KKK's hatred was directed not only against black people, but also against European Catholic and Jewish immigrants flocking to the U.S. after the war. In 1925 and 1926, the Klan descended on Washington, D.C. for two massive marches. City officials fiercely debated whether to allow a white supremacist organization known for lynchings, violence and terror to parade around the U.S. capital. The decision was ultimately made to let them march, albeit without their signature masks. The so-called “konklave” drew upwards of 50,000 Klansmen, who marched through the city in a chilling display.
