The Ku Klux Klan is an organization created after the American Civil War by veterans of the Confederation as a reaction to the situation of its people, their first activities focused on creating a social circle in which they could have a fun time, in some cases they mocked the former black slaves. However, during the reconstruction period, their actions became harsher and more threatening to the abolitionist whites who moved south during the war, also known as the baggers, or to the southern Republicans who called themselves scalawags , but the most affected were the new freed African slaves, who were cruelly mistreated by members of the Ku Klux Klan that limit the exercise of their rights as free people, the irruption they made in their homes to rob and take away the weapons of the black veterans of the war, obstructing the reconstruction of the country given that they continued to act under the idea of slavery. So, the correct answer is B. It kept African Americans from exercising their rights.
