Skinheads go beyond the societal stereotype of hate mongers,
bigots, and Neo-Nazis. The community of skins also includes
traditional skins (those that adhere to the original philosophy of
the British movement in 1969), Skinheads Against Racial prejudice
(SHARPS), and gay skins, female skins and Neo-Nazi or
Racist/Nationalist skins. Skinhead History, Identity, and Culture
covers the history, identity, and culture of the skinhead movement
in Europe and America, looking at the total culture of the skins

data is ethnographic, drawing on face-to-face interviews with skins

social media about various skinhead groups within the United

Offering a fresh perspective on the changing face of terror

terror organizations. Editors Robin Valeri and Kevin Borgeson and

sociology, and homeland security students, professors, or
practitioners.
