Also I think Macy Gray’s flag leaves out LGBT people. Why should the flag stars represent different levels of pigmentation? It is impossible for any sort if fair representation because even cosmetics like Il Makiage have 50 shades, so who gets the remaining two stars? No, better to go with the rainbow flag colors in the stars. They vivid enough, though I suppose you will run into trouble with blue.
Frankly, all of this Identity Politics is starting to feel like the neighbors left their Christmas lights up too long. I’m starting to feel like decorating the sad little faded and flickering little half burned out lights with stuff from the other holidays, you know, brighten things up a little and make it more democratic.
Is this the same Macy Gray that sings like she has a mouth full of marbles?
NO..just Americans...not slaves.
DO any black folks know what Juneteenth really means....I do NOT think so.....
The Confederate battle flag, which was crafted as a symbol of opposition to the abolishment of slavery??
????
No it was a flag to rally around in the smoke of battle.
A good old southern boy wouldn’t want to find himself next to the blue belly’s??
The moronic author of that article is smoking wacky tobacky!! 🤓
“the American flag has been hijacked as code for a specific belief. God bless those believers, they can have it.” Hey Macy Gray...go f**k yourself.
The “writer” of this CBS “Market Watch” page article is an absolute NOBODY of the music biz who won 1 grammy and claims to be an “R&B” artist— with product that is difficult to categorize as authentic R&B.
Macy Gray. out for any publicity to make political hay and foist an audience. And prove complete idiocy and stupidity.
Puerto Rico does Not want to become a state— they like not paying income taxes for money they earn in PR, for one thing. For a second— the assimilation of the dems efforts to get this as a state— is to ADD even more huge debt to the US table. Not going to happen.
I see what you did there. :-)
Now if the stars represent states then having them a specific color will completely misrepresent their population and further offend the perpetually offended.
Idiotic idea. Stars and Stripes forever!
I think as with Kwanzaa, only white elementary school teachers know about it.
This cockroach of a “journalist” needs to find another country to live in.
“Replacing the stars with marijuana leaves and the stripes with a rainbow of injection needles.”
One of the stars could be replaced with the tiny image of an aborted fetus; another star replaced by a welfare check; another by a burning police station; another by a face covering; and so forth and so on.
Of course the Confederate battle flag incorporates the St. Andrew's flag which is problematic in itself. Andrew was a fisherman before he was summoned to be an apostle, which meant that he killed fish and sold their carcasses for money...innocent sentient vertebrates who were simply enjoying their lives in the Sea of Galilee. At the very least Andrew was a species-ist but it's better to admit that he was simply a cold-blooded killer (of cold-blooded fish).
Easiest way for Macy to live under another flag is to move. I’ll hold the door.
Is this the singer who wrote this?
I see Ms Gray has blond highlights in her hair. She needs to quit lecturing others and check her cultural appropriation.
No
