Dix·ie·pho·bi·a
Pronunciation: \ˌdik-sē-ˈfō-bē-ə\
Function: noun
Definition: prejudice against, hatred towards, or fear of the American South, it's culture, symbols, language, music, or people, especially as a political force. It is often used more specifically to describe those who show fear, display an aversion to, or seek censorship of the Confederate flag or the history, traditions, or monuments of the former Confederate States of America.
Dixiephobia is a blend of (1) the word Dixie, the historical nickname for the American South, usually defined as the Southern states south of the Mason-Dixon line, or the Southern states that made up the Confederate States of America, and (2) the word phobia from the Greek φόβος, Phóbos, meaning "fear" or "morbid fear".
Two words originate from dixiephobia: dixiephobic (adj.) and dixiephobe (n.), the latter word describing a person who displays dixiephobia or is thought to do so.
