Southern whites were forced to accept the new status of recently freed slaves. After the Emancipation Proclamation, all slaves and indentured servants were free within the U.S. and the former C.S.A. This, however, meant that whites would now have to live, work, and pray alongside African Americans. While whites were being repatriated back into the U.S., the policy of reconstruction was brutal for them. Not only had they lost the war, they also lost their dignity and their Southern identities. To rebel against the new regimes, groups like the Ku Klux Klan were formed to keep blacks and the Federal government in fear.
