Carpetbagger
In the history of the United States, carpetbagger is a largely historical pejorative used by Southerners to describe allegedly opportunistic or disruptive Northerners who came to the Southern states after the American Civil War and were perceived to be exploiting the local populace for their own financial, political, or social gain.

White Southerners commonly denounced carpetbagger ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
