Scalawags.
Freedmen, Scalawags, And Carpet-Baggers
Scalawags is the term used to refer to white Southerners who favored the Reconstruction instead of the south. The derogatory term later became more of a political name.
Scalawags were Southerners who agreed to work with the Republican government of Andrew Johnson, which was unfriendly to the South. Carpetbaggers were Northerners who came South to exploit the low wages - perfectly legal, but they were viewed as mean and unpleasant people.
They were called "Carpetbaggers" and, "Scalawags".
