The Knights of the Flaming Circle was a militant organization founded in 1923 to fight the anti-Catholic Ku Klux Klan. They were part of an opposition that included politicians, labor leaders and immigrant groups. Membership was open to anyone who opposed the KKK and was "not a Protestant". They had significant support amongst various ethnic groups in Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Bryce Bauer has written that, "Instead of only admitting white, native-born Protestants as the Klan did, the organization vowed to accept anyone who was anything other than that."

| - Die Knights of the Flaming Circle war eine nationale Organisation in den Vereinigten Staaten, die sich in den 1920er Jahren gegen den Ku-Klux-Klan organisierte. In den 1930er Jahren löste sie sich wieder auf, als der Ku-Klux-Klan an Bedeutung verlor, um im Zuge des Civil Right Movements zurückzukehren. (de)
- Knights of the Flaming Circle var ett sällskap som bildades i Ohio i USA under 1920-talet, enbart i syfte att stå emot Ku Klux Klan som under den här tiden hade stora framgångar i Ohio liksom i det övriga USA. I staden Niles i Ohio uppstod konflikt med dödsoffer mellan infödda bofasta och invandrade amerikaner. De infödda orienterade sig mot klanen, medan invandrarna (här katolska irländare, italienare, tyskar och östeuropeer) kom att bilda sin egen klanliknande organisation som kallades Knights of the Flaming Circle.
