A skinhead is a member of a subculture that originated among working class youths in London, England in the 1960's. It soon spread to other parts of the United Kingdom and later to other countries around the world.

Why do skinheads hate jews?

They aren't. A racist skinhead shares almost NO ideals with real skinheads. The actual skinhead scene started as a mix between the English mod scene and the rudeboy style brought to the UK by Jamaican immigrants in the '60s. The first skinhead music was ska and reggae. But skins had a reputation for being brawlers, and so, in the late 70s and early 80s, the National Front (a racist, nationalist English political group) began encouraging their followers to adopt skinhead styles. The media picked up on these boneheads and that's where the image of a racist skinhead came from.
