"Ku-Klux Conspiracy" offers a detailed examination of the Ku Klux Klan's activities during the Reconstruction era following the American Civil War. Compiled by the United States Congress Joint Select Committee, with John Scott and Luke Potter Poland playing pivotal roles, this historical document sheds light on the Klan's efforts to undermine the rights and safety of African Americans and suppress Republican voters in the former Confederate states.
The book presents firsthand testimonies, reports, and findings from the congressional investigation, revealing the extent of the Klan's violence, intimidation tactics, and organized resistance to federal Reconstruction policies. It provides invaluable insights into the social, political, and racial dynamics of the post-Civil War South and the challenges faced in establishing equality and justice for all citizens. "Ku-Klux Conspiracy" stands as a crucial primary source for understanding this turbulent period in American history and the ongoing struggle for civil rights.
