I am a visual type. Because of that, I pay attention to visual elements. Sometimes, they are very puzzling to me.
One of those is this clenching fist that I've been noticing for the past 20+ years. With very characteristic details highlighted here in pink circles, especially the one highlighted in the red circle, I see exactly the same fist appearing again and again. In some cases, it's exactly copy-pasted, or photocopied before computers.
The exact same fist is used by totally opposite groups/movements—from racist Aryan groups, White Power to the Black Panther Party/Black Power and Black Lives Matter and everything in between.
Even the American Association of University Professors and the American Federation of Teachers use a slightly modified version of the same fist.
I am very curious about whose original drawing was this fist.
If by any chance you know this, please let me know.
