Are there non-racist Skinheads anymore?

I remember in the 80's, being a Skinhead meant solidarity with the working class, rather than any racist ideology. Then in the 90's, Skinhead became synonymous with white power.

So - are there any non-racist skinheads anymore?

3. Here's an interesting article from the City Pages called "Skin Heads at 40"

In the Twin Cities in the 80's and 90's there was an anti-racism group called the Baldies.
