A Chicago high school is spending $53,000 to reprint its yearbooks after several students flashed white supremacy symbols in their photos
-The upside-down OK sign circulated as hoax by 4chan users to falsely promote white supremacy in 2017, but in the last year, white supremacists have started using it as a symbol of white power, according to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL).
-Pruitt-Adams said the hand gesture is also associated with "the circle game," a prank in which one person makes a circle with their fingers and holds it below their waist, convincing a second person to look at it. If the second person looks, the first playfully punches them.
-the district negotiated the initial cost of the reprint down to $53,794 from $85,000.
According to the Chicago Sun-Times, the school initially printed 1,750 copies of the yearbook before deciding to remove the images.
