The correct answer is A. The Klan tried to attract Catholics and ethnic groups.
Explanation: In the 1920s, the Ku Klux Klan primarily focused on promoting white Protestant supremacy and was known for its strong anti-Catholic and anti-immigrant sentiments. Rather than attracting Catholics and ethnic groups, the Klan aimed to exclude and target them, along with African Americans and Jews. This choice stands out as contradictory to the Klan’s ideology of that time.
