What is ✊️ called?
✊️ is called the Raised fist emoji.
Often called the solidarity fist, power fist, or resistance fist. “Raised punch” describes the shape but misses its widespread non-violent unity meaning.
What does ✊️ mean?
✊ raises a closed fist as a symbol of solidarity, resistance, collective strength, determination, or empowerment. It appears in protest movements, labour action, civil-rights advocacy, and messages about standing together.
The raised fist has been used by many groups over a long history and does not belong to one cause alone. In lighter contexts it can simply mean resolve, power, or readiness.
Other meanings
Solidarity, protest, unity, resistance, resilience, strength, empowerment, determination, or support for a social movement.
Example Usage
Standing together for fair treatment ✊
We will keep going until the work is finished ✊
