The person flying that flag may be more educated than you and just is showing their pride in being a Southerner! Today's world is one of attempting to change history. We cannot.
And where the special interest groups can get away with it....eliminate history.
Yale for example is eliminating some of the history programming as it has been found to not be diverse enough.
The sad part of what is "going on today" is it is the minority (not race) that is winning these moves to change the world as it HAPPENED.

I know....off the subject of the thread but some what tangential.
