treaties
violence

The Ku Klux Klan (KKK) was a white supremacist group during the Reconstruction era. Their goals included intimidating African Americans and their allies to maintain white dominance. To achieve this, they used violence, such as lynchings, arson, and physical assaults, to terrorize those who sought equal rights or participated in Reconstruction - era politics. Treaties are used between nations, and peace was not their method; they aimed to disrupt the progress of Reconstruction through violent means.
