Final Answer : D, Explanation :  Racist, nativist, and fundamentalist groups in the 1920s were attempting to defend the older values associated with the late nineteenth century against the materialism and rapid social change of the 1920s. They were not engaged in terrorist acts with the ultimate aim of overthrowing the U.S. government, nor were almost all of their members from poor, depressed rural areas. While some of these groups faced government scrutiny and opposition, there was no broad requirement for their members to register with the U.S. government.
