It is generally believed that prospective members were originally required to be of Irish descent, but that this requirement was later revoked. Today, although the membership is still mostly Caucasian and they continue to use symbols associated with Nazi Germany , such as the Swastika , the AB also includes some non-white members, and they work actively with non-white gangs such as the Mexican Mafia (MM or EME). AB symbols include the Nazi SS Sig Runes ; the Nazi swastika; the numbers " 666 ;" and "88" which signifies the eighth letter of the alphabet, h, twice for "Heil Hitler", the letters "AB;" and the Shamrock (as a symbol of their originally Irish membership). AB members who are released from the Prison system are expected to maintain their ties to their incarcerated ''kindred'' and even continue to provide active support by sending Money or Smuggling Drugs into the Prisons . Members, in and out of the prison system, have been connected to Robberies ; assaults, Murder s, including Contract Killings ; and Drug Dealing , especially Marijuana and Methamphetamines . The AB is believed to have connections to Aryan Nations , a Neo-Nazi organization that follows a Religious Ideology known as Christian Identity . However, in some areas, AB's are said to be using the Neo-pagan religion, Odinism , as part of their gang activities.
