I do hope the removal of confederate flags from state and local government properties is a permanent thing though. I can't understand why a symbol of secession, slavery and racism could ever be regarded as a legitimate thing for government institutions to display as a matter of pride. If private individuals or organisations want to wrap themselves in that odious symbology then that is fine, but government institutions should never be party to that sort of thing.

ehm both  us flags are a symbol of secession, slavery and racism.  the british mainland ruled out slavery long before the colonies seceded.

a slave came free when he walked on british soil..
