1 Answer
What does the red scarf symbolize?
What the red scarf represents depends on the context. Most often, people associate red scarves with communism because young people who supported the economic system in Russia, China, Cuba, Hungary and other countries frequently sported them. In addition, some people wear red scarves on February 4th in honor of National Wear Red Day , which seeks to raise awareness about heart disease.
