You have decided to form a group to return the swastika symbol to its original Sanskrit meaning – “su” means “good,” “asti” means “to be”, and “ka” is a suffix. You apply to the trademark office to have the swastika registered to your group, and the office refuses, citing the Lanham Act section 2(a). Can you refute the PTO’s designation of your symbol as disparaging, scandalous, or immoral? How can you convince the PTO officer that your mark is different?
