... the “Confederate Flag” became the emblem of the Rebellion ...

Back in the 1970s, my high school mascot was "The Rebels." We had Confederate battle flags all over school and our fight song was "Dixie".

The politically correct thought police still permit them to be called the Rebels (for now) but every reference to the Confederacy has been erased.

My High School, Lane Tech in Chicago’s mascot was The Indian...

Or as we were knows, The Indians...

Big Feathered head dress, muck like you might see on a Sioux Warrior Chief was our emblem

Chicago...

I shudder to think about what it might be changed to...

So glad I do not live there anymore, California my home state I can handle...
