HATE SYMBOLS DATABASE

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has a new 2014 database of hate symbols.  It’s useful to identify potential terrorists.

“Introduction 

Symbols are powerful communication tools. They convey considerable meaning in an immediately recognizable form, and the power they can have is tremendous. Consider the reverence or passion that the American flag, the Star of David, and the Christian cross evoke, and the impact of symbols is readily apparent.  

Unfortunately, symbols can convey negative connotations as well as positive ones. Some symbols are meant to evoke feelings of hate or anger, or to spark fear and insecurity. Hate symbols, for instance, can be found scrawled on the outside walls of synagogues, churches and schools; tattooed on the bodies of white supremacists; or displayed on jewelry and clothing. Extremists use these symbols because it gives them a sense of power and belonging, as well as a quick way of identifying others who share their beliefs.  

This database provides an overview of many of the symbols most frequently used by a variety of white supremacist groups and movements, as well as some other types of hate groups.”

The database can be searched by category:

• Any
• General Hate Symbols
• Hate Acronyms / Abbreviations
• Hate Group Symbols / Logos
• Hate Slogans / Slang Terms
