Hate Symbol

Keystone State Skinheads

All the symbols depicted in the hate symbols database must be evaluated in the context in which they appear. Few symbols represent just one idea or are used exclusively by one group. For example, 100% is often used as an amount or an expression and it is also used by some white supremacists as shorthand for "100% white." Similarly, other symbols in this database may be significant to people who are not extreme or racist. The descriptions here point out significant multiple meanings but may not be able to relay every possible meaning of a particular symbol.

Group Status: Legacy (the group is no longer active, but some symbols may remain as tattoos, graffiti, etc.)

The Keystone State Skinheads (KSS) are a regional racist skinhead gang based in Pennsylvania, especially eastern Pennsylvania. Their logo consists of an image of the head of a pitbull superimposed over a keystone colored red, white, and black (the colors of the Nazi flag). The group is smaller and less active than it was in the early 2000s.
