Boiling Pot Quote

Professor: The Ku Klux Klan. Does anyone know what that name means? The Ku Klux Klan? No one knows?
Valerie Davis: It's Greek. Kuklos. It means the circle.
Professor: Yes, that's one version of the story. Another etymology proposes an onomatopoeia. Ku Klux Klan. It's the sound of a cocking rifle. You see racism is rooted in violence. And violence is rooted in racism.
