The Three Arrows symbol was first used as a symbol of the
resistance against
Nazism in 1932, representing opposition against monarchism,
nazism, and
authoritarian communism. Today, the Three Arrows symbol is popularly used within the
Antifa movement in the
United States, along with flags based on the symbol of
Antifa in
Germany. Anarchists and
anti-fascists frequently use the symbol, usually against
authoritarianism,
fascism, and authoritarian
socialism.
