The correct answer is that they flew the Confederate flag over state capitol buildings. This was sort of a power play to make the people know that they weren't wanted there and that the south belongs to those who believe in confederate heritage. Basically, they were a bunch of racists but they weren't allowed to do anything so they resorted to this kind of things. They were often violent as well.

Iwould have to say c. the german americans.
