It helps when you go to the right person. I got these additional sites from
BJ Berquist. Add them to the list (that also came from BJ months ago)
posted last night:

BJ found that the keywords "street
gangs graffiti" worked best, but did try gang symbols and street gangs.

http://www.korealore.com/gourd/colorsymbolism.html

Try the Teoma search engine: http://www.teoma.com/ and enter
'symbolism'(the good, the bad, and the ugly, but a couple good hits)

Good place for info on Gangs:
http://19thcircuitcourt.state.il.us/faqs/gangwise.htm
This was linked from the previous site: http://www.gangcolors.com/

Here's another good one for gangs: http://www.gang-busters.com/

This one has text(slang) symbols:
