The Boogaloo movement, members of which are often referred to as Boogaloo boys, is a loose American far-right extremist movement. Members of the Boogaloo movement say they are preparing for a coming second United States Civil War, which they call the "Boogaloo". The term originated in far-right online communities in 2019, where it was used to refer to violent uprisings against the federal government that were anticipated to follow any confiscation of firearms. The word is now used by anti-government groups, as well as by white supremacists who specifically believe the unrest will be a race war.
