In response, the white South dug in its heels. Under the banner of ""Massive Resistance,"" segregationists developed an array of weapons to defend their way of life. While they practiced traditional southern tactics - calling opponents ""outsiders"" and occasionally employing mob violence - they made sophisticated use of the pervasive Cold War climate of the 1950s and 1960s, labeling their opponents ""reds"" and accusing them of being led, run, and financed by communists.
