A group of Alabama cheerleaders have come under fire for posing with a T-shirt bearing the image of the Confederate flag that said 'I love Redneck Boys'.

The white members of the squad were slammed by Reagan Coleman, a black cheerleader on the team who has since quit.

The controversial photo shows six white girls, four of whom are Daphne High School cheerleaders.

Considering the socio-economic status of Daphe, AL, which is near Mobile, I seriously doubt these girls would touch a Redneck with a 10 footpole. There are calls for the girls to be kicked off the cheer squad.

“Reagan’s mother Latitah Coleman said: ‘There’s no two sides to that flag. That means hatred, That’s what it stands for for us. We were oppressed with that flag. “

No, you were not.

Kicked off the squad? Their suspension or expulsion would not surprise me.

And yet if white girls quit because black cheerleaders posed with BLM flags then the white girls would be called fascists and closed minded.

Sorry - I’m checked out of virtue signaling.

The black girl is a closed minded, racist, bigot.

Sez you.

But then again you’re ignorant about it anyway.

Because there are no Laws confirming freedom of association nor freedom of expression.

Oh, wait.

Why on Earth is this national, let alone international news??

This is part of what leads to cancel culture: the amplification of a minor, local issue into some massive worldwide mission to punish whoever isn’t marching in lockstep with the approved mode of living according to the army of Karens.

There is no law against offending someone.

I grew up in south Georgia, in the era of Black Proms and White Proms.

No black people saw the Confederate Flag as 'racist', they just saw it like everyone else did, Southern heritage.

Very valid point

Funny how most who complain about oppression don’t really know what it is.

Having lived in multiple countries, I know exactly what it is.

These people are clueless.
