WHAT IS THE BOOGALOO MOVEMENT?
Boogaloo is a far-right, anti-government extremist movement.
The heavily armed participants linked to the group say they're preparing for a second Civil War.
It got its name from the panned 1984 movie 'Breakin´ 2: Electric Boogaloo' and uses the title as a code word for a second Civil War.
Other derivations of 'boogaloo' are 'big igloo' or 'big luau.'
Followers are easy to spot with their trademark Hawaiian shirts and high-powered rifles and tactical gear.
The movement is made up of pro-gun and anti-government groups.
Participants mostly organize on Facebook but have attended recent events like the COVID-19 lockdown protests and demonstrations of George Floyd's death.
Facebook earlier this month moved to limit the movement´s exposure on its platform by no longer recommending user groups associated with the term 'boogaloo' to members of similar associations.
