To determine which statements are significant about the Ku Klux Klan gaining power and influence in the South, we will evaluate each statement individually:
1) "It was a group of white democrats who wanted to regain control of the government" - This statement is accurate. The Ku Klux Klan primarily consisted of white Democrats who sought to regain political power in the South after the Civil War and Reconstruction period.
2) "The group was funded by Northern politicians who wanted to stir up opposition in the South" - This statement is not accurate. The Ku Klux Klan was not directly funded by Northern politicians. While there were some individuals in the North who sympathized with and supported the Klan's goals, the group was primarily organized and funded by its members in the South.
3) "The group was made up of Republicans who wanted to see peace between the North and South" - This statement is not accurate. The Ku Klux Klan was not made up of Republicans. In fact, the Klan primarily targeted Republicans, especially African Americans and white Republicans who supported civil rights.
4) "The group influenced the voting of citizens through threats" - This statement is accurate. One of the primary ways the Ku Klux Klan exerted its power was through voter intimidation and suppression. By using threats and violence, the Klan aimed to discourage African Americans from exercising their right to vote and to disrupt political processes that challenged white supremacy.
Based on this evaluation, the two statements that are significant about the Ku Klux Klan gaining power and influence in the South are:
- It was a group of white Democrats who wanted to regain control of the government.
- The group influenced the voting of citizens through threats.
