A skinhead is a member of a subculture that originated among working class youths in the United Kingdom in the 1960s, and then spread to other parts of the world. Named for their close-cropped or shaven heads, the first skinheads were greatly influenced by West Indian (specifically Jamaican) rude boys and British mods, in terms of fashion, music and lifestyle.[1] Originally, the skinhead subculture was primarily based on those elements, not politics or race.[2] Since then, however, attitudes toward race and politics have become factors in which some skinheads align themselves. The political spectrum within the skinhead scene ranges from the far right to the far left, although many skinheads are apolitical. Fashion-wise, skinheads range from a clean-cut 1960s mod-influenced style to less-strict punk- and hardcore-influenced styles.

so yeah!

Yay as soon as i become a skinhead ill join your group............... If i may quote you: "...the first skinheads were greatly influenced by West Indian (specifically Jamaican) rude boys..."...............well i dont know if jamaican ska and reggae music supports swastikas, nazis and that sort of white power shit ;-). I bet there are still today a damn lot of original skinheads who dont want to be connected with racism and the 3rd reich...
