Dayton White Rose

Truth and Triumph Tattoo in Dayton, Ohio has a troubling reputation for harboring white supremacists and engaging in discriminatory behavior against their own employees. The owner has a history of using racial slurs and making derogatory statements about minorities. At a company party several years ago, the owner told an African American employee that he was “the only n****r that ever worked for him,” and continued to use several racial slurs throughout the evening. The shop has a track record of employing known white supremacists. The screen grab below shows a Jim Crow era "Colored People Entrance" sign that was on display at the Truth and Triumph shop several years ago.  The next screenshot below shows the Jim Crow era sign in a larger context with a rebel flag clearly visible. This artist no longer works for the company, but his racism was tolerated at Truth and Triumph as clearly shown through these images. This artist now works at the Black Skull Collective tattoo parlor
