A while back, two or three summers ago. At an event called AfroFest. I recognized two guys wearing supremacists t-shirts thanks to a Facebook group that showcases the racism or bigotry in our city. I was SHOCKED! 
Many of the people in the festivals, predominantly black had no idea they were scoping, taking pictures or videos. I felt helpless and didn't know what to do at that time. And it made me think. A lot of us don't know their banners or symbols.
Sometimes you see unrecognizable logos, or stickers on people's mug, shirt, flyers, the back of vehicles and you have NO IDEA of their meaning or who these groups are. It's all about being covert in their hate and racism.
As I mentioned, at the time I was upset and felt helpless and didn't know what to do. Now I figured I have a platform. As more people realize the severity of racism and how covert it can be. Knowledge is power! So, let's get familiar with their symbols.

Through their armed branch, Combat 18 (C18), the group has carried out violent actions, including murders and bombings. B&H was founded in the United Kingdom in 1987 and grew during the 1990s, establishing branches throughout Europe by the end of the decade.
B&H attacks have occurred in North America and in several EU-member states. In January 2012, four B&H members in Tampa, Florida, were convicted of the 1998 murder of two homeless men who were killed because the group considered them “inferior.”
In February 2012, members of B&H and C18 firebombed a building occupied mostly by Romani families, including children, in Aš, Czech Republic.
Club 28 is the name Blood & Honour Canada goes by, according to their website, they are not directly affiliated with C18, which has no official members. Participants and supporters in C18 have “ties to the greater Blood and Honour movement.
