"The Ku Klux Klan was the first major, violence-prone group in the United States to be organized according to racism in general and a belief in white supremacy in particular. It began in Tennessee shortly after the Civil War. A small group of discouraged and defeated Confederate soldiers banded together under the leadership of a former Confederate general, Nathan Bedford Forrest. They sought to maintain the practices of the old South--most notably the enslavement of African Americans--in the face of changes brought about by intruding Northerners and freed slaves. While at first these often unemployed ex-soldiers engaged largely in prankish stunts, before long the organization expaned and involved itself in increasingly violent and sinister activities... "
