like you lick a stamp and put it on an evelope
Most, if not all states had NO flag prior to The War Between The States and it was THAT defining moment in American history (officially 1894 ... it took 25 or so years), that Mississippi proudly declared it's historic participation in a very American political event
The Confederate representation was no more an "addition" than the Magnolia Tree of 1861.
The Mississippi state flag has been unchanged for 121 years
Now ... if someone wants to change or remove something that is on an identifier or a flag ....
I strongly suggest the newcomer
African
Be removed from the word AMERICAN
IT IS A SYMBOL OF HATE, DEATH AND DESTRUCTION
Learned alot about the history of flags on this thread. Cool.
And I agree with the word african being removed.
