I think this what Steven and Truthizz is spot on, Racism is not culture and should not be embraced as history. It's pretty sad that manye in our society still hold on to such gross and backwards ideology. We have to make sure that we teach our children that symbol is wrong and the real sad history about it.

This is nothing but a symbol of racism. It is embraced by the old whites and the young whites.

They don't care what the black people want and many black people are foolishly ignore or signing on to this bs about this flag being a symbol of southern heritage. What is not understood by black people this flag is a message to you and only a sign of things to come.

The interesting part is that this flag is flown on homes and painted on trucks all across this country. You would be surprised how many northerners fly this flag and many never lived in the south.

This flag is a symbol of white power and the times when whites were in stricker control and it is their message to you that they are trying to regain control.

Black people had better open their eyes.

McBerry:
"Southerners have as much right to be proud of their heritage as anybody else."

The sad truth is, most WHITE Southerners probably ARE very proud of their RACIST heritage..especially older white southerners, who are among the most faithful Republican base.

For me the bigger question is…

What's it gonna take for Blacks to WAKE-UP and become more active in voting in local and state-wide elections, regardless of what part of the country they live in?..but in particular, in the South?

When common-sense Americans don't vote, it leaves the door WIDE-OPEN for Racists, ignoramuses, Kooks and brazen opportunists to get elected.

And then all manner of BS gets proposed and passed into law….smh.
