ABSTRACT
This paper discusses the depiction of migrants in Germany and the attitude of refusal of migrants by the AfD political parties in two illustrations and the hashtag uploaded by Ralph Ruthe on the Instagram social media page. Through social identity theory and Pierce's semiotic theory, a symbol that represents migrants, AfD and the attitude of German society to the issue of refusal of migrants by the AfD will be discussed. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive method in the form of a literature study. The results of this paper show that there is still a gap between German and migrant people. However, in both illustrations there was criticism of the refusal of migrants by the AfD through the hashtag stated.
