It was simply too difficult to render this image properly on a flag with existing technology. But this is what they were going for.

Googled Judith Harrington.
Typical busybody liberal geek with the granny glasses & goofy-tooth grin.
To reject oppressive male hetero norms, they need to change it to where the white guy is doing the prancing, not the horse.
And, hey, how did the horse come unhitched from the plow?
This is just another example of the Minnesota “Me-too’s,” the unfathomable rush of this phony state to embrace whatever left-wing fad is circulating currently. Minnesota tries so hard to be one of the “cool kids” that it is constantly embarrassing itself like this.
Actually it’s Mzzzz Harrington who became unhitched, if indeed she ever was. Careful what you google, what has been seen cannot be unseen. Those pix - yuk!
Anyway, I googled “Flags of the United States”. Seems the Chicago Exposition of 1893 was coming up, and all the states without distinctive flags got in a big hurry to devise their own. That explains why so many of them either have two figures flanking the state seal, or a landscape composite like Minnesota’s.
The PC busybodies came along a century later.
“Coon Rapids” will be the next target of these morons.
Minnesota’s Flag should have the ISIS flag on it... for all the Terrorists in the twin cities...
Sooner than you might think, they will demand all flags down, including the Stars and Stripes.
Yes, the Indian should be in a Tux riding a Victory motorcycle (made by Polaris Industries, based in MN).
The author scratches around for conflict.
Indian. I’m a native American, I was born in Florida. My ancestors came over here in 1708. I’m pretty darned sure that qualifies as native!
Pretty sure he stole it from that poor farmer trying to plow his field with no horse.
Those are some SERIOUS "long johns", that go up to his neck!
Maybe a "Union suit" with the drop seat.
That Indian was way ahead of his time.
Most state flags are boring.
Just throwing the state seal up on blank field is lazy.
