Ku-Kluxn.

/ˈkjuːklʌks/

Etymology: A fantastic name said to be made out of Greek κύκλος circle + clan n.

a. More fully Ku-Klux-Klan. A widespread secret society which arose in the Southern States of North America after the civil war of 1861–5, beginning with the effort to overawe the black population by whipping and arson, and developing a system of political outrage and murder. Also attributive. Cf. Klan n., Kluxer n.The original society was finally put down by the U.S. military forces. It was revived in 1915 and spread outside the Southern States, terrorizing various ethnic and religious minorities, and acting violently against white Protestants whom they judged to be opposed to their cause. Later the society fragmented into several State organizations. The Ku-Klux Klan regained strength in the Southern States of the U.S. in the 1950s in opposition to the Civil Rights movement.
