C. during World War I in the 1920s
Explanation:
- The founding of SECOND KKK in 1915 was the product of the new power of the mass media. Three very close events had a great impact on the revival of the Klan idea:
- The premiere of David V. Griffith's film Birth of a Nation, which glorified and transformed into a myth the first Klan.
- Lynch of Jewish Leo Frank, charged and convicted of raping and killing 13-year-old Mary Phagan, a white worker at the factory where he was the manager. This lynch was largely responsible for the racially-motivated writing of the newspaper that followed Frank's trial.
- The Second Klan was founded with a new anti-immigrant, anti-Catholic and anti-Semitic program. Most of the members of the newly formed Klux Klan were members of an organization calling themselves the Knights of Mary Phagan, and the new Klan followed the example of the Klan version presented in the film Birth of a Nation.
