The opening scene depicts a crowd of skinheads waving Russian flags and fighting a gang of bikers who they believed have succumbed to western influence and ideology.

Danny Vinyard (Edward Furlong), a high school student and budding neo-Nazi in Venice Beach, California, receives an assignment from Mr. Murray (Elliott Gould), his history teacher, to write a paper on "any book which relates to the struggle for human rights". Knowing Murray is Jewish, Danny writes his paper on Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf. Murray attempts to get Danny expelled for doing this, but Principal Dr. Bob Sweeney (Avery Brooks) — who is black — refuses, instead informing Danny that he will study history and current events under Sweeney, and that the class will be called "American History X". Danny's first assignment is to prepare a paper on his brother Derek (Edward Norton), a former neo-Nazi leader who has just been released from prison after serving three years for voluntary manslaughter. Danny is warned that failing to submit the paper the next morning will result in his expulsion. The rest of the film alternates between a series of vignettes from Danny and Derek's shared past (distinguished by being shown in black and white), and present day events (shown in color).

Le film raconte, sur une période de 19 ans (de 1994 à 2013), l'histoire de Marco (Alban Lenoir) et de ses acolytes, Braguette (Samuel Jouy), Grand-Guy (Paul Hamy) et Marvin (Olivier Chenille). Ils sont ce que l'on appelle des skinheads et passent leurs journées à cogner des noirs et des arabes, à se battre contre des punks et des redskins, et à coller des affiches de l'extrême-droite. Mais peu à peu, au fil des années, Marco se remet en question et décide de se repentir, de devenir quelqu'un de bien et d'abandonner cette haine et ce mépris. On va alors suivre le parcours d'un homme essayant par tous les moyens d'abandonner la colère, la violence et la bêtise qui le rongent pendant qu'autour de lui, à l'inverse, la société se radicalise de plus en plus et plusieurs personnes de son entourage, notamment sa petite amie et un de ses amis, tous deux décidés à garder leurs idéaux racistes, xénophobes, islamophobes, homophobes..., ne le reconnaissent plus.

Daniel Balint is a former Jewish yeshiva student, brilliant but troubled, who is now a fanatically violent Neo-Nazi in New York in his early 20s. As a child, he often challenged his teachers with unorthodox interpretations of scripture. He once argued that the Binding of Isaac was not about Abraham's faith but God's power: that God did not want Abraham to accomplish a particular task but instead asks unquestioning obedience, which Abraham refuses to give. He concluded that God is a bully.
