Question

what were the causes of the rebirth of the ku klux klan

Answer 1

They cloaked themselves as a Christian organization to preserve White values. The movie "Birth of a Nation" was also an effective recruiting tool. The post civil war KKK terrorized Blacks. The 1920s KKK waged war against everyone who was not a white protestant.

Answer 2

William J. Simmons, a former Methodist preacher, organized a new Klan in Stone Mountain, Georgia in 1915 as a patriotic, Protestant fraternal society. This new Klan directed its activity against not just blacks, but immigrants, Jews, and Roman Catholics. The Ku Klux Klan grew rapidly from there and had more than two million members throughout the country by the mid-1920s.
