"Black shirts" typically refers to members or supporters of the Fascist movement in Italy, particularly associated with Benito Mussolini's National Fascist Party. They were named after their distinctive black uniforms, which became a symbol of the paramilitary wing of the Fascist movement. The Blackshirts were known for their aggressive tactics, including violence and intimidation, used to enforce Fascist ideology and suppress opposition during the rise of Mussolini's regime in Italy in the early 20th century.
