unreconstructed

White southern racists who, despite having lost the US Civil War, continued to hold white supremacist views> "Unreconstructed" southerners thus formed the Ku Klux Klan, instituted segregation, Jim Crow, lynchings, deprived southern blacks of voting rights and in other ways tried to continue the system of racist southern apartheid that continued well past the mid-point of the 20th century. This "Unreconstructed" racist viewpoint still exists in some regions of the south, along with a reverence for all things related to the southern war to preserve and expand slavery, such as display of the Confederate battle flag, mottoes such as "The South Will Rise Again," etc.
"That man may ACT like he doesn't discriminated but inside he's as unreconstructed as anyone I ever met."
