Singer Macy Gray argued in a recent op-ed that a new flag is needed for the United States, saying Old Glory is 'tattered, dated, divisive and incorrect' - and providing a design of her own.

Gray, 53, wrote the op-ed for MarketWatch ahead of Juneteenth, which was declared a federal holiday this week and is set to be celebrated on Saturday.

n her piece, the 'I Try' singer said the flag needs to be redesigned to represent all Americans, arguing the symbolism of Old Glory was harmed during the Capitol riot.

'Like the Confederate, it is tattered, dated, divisive, and incorrect,' Gray wrote of the flag. 'It no longer represents democracy and freedom. It no longer represents ALL of us. It’s not fair to be forced to honor it. It’s time for a new flag.'

Gray put together a proposal for that new flag, with off-white stripes, '52 stars to include D.C. and Puerto Rico,' and stars 'the colors of ALL of us — your skin tone and mine — like the melanin scale.'

This has been the goal all along. Get rid of the flag, all patriotic songs, the Constitution and Declaration.

I form all of my opinions from black females because they have excellent decision making skills.

Anyone who doesn’t like our flag is free to leave.
I’ll help them pack.

I have a single neighbor with four excellent decisions ranging from ages 8-15, roaming the community, blossoming into that age where they make excellent decisions of their own.

happy Junteenth everyone. I’d be happy to make this our independence day if blacks were truly independent. Play their game.

That’s the perfect flag for her as it’s very childish.

Where would they go? Remember all those hollywood elite who were leaving when president trump was elected? They are all hot air and the hole should be plugged with a high speed fist.

They're going to change everything and if you resist, you'll be called a terrorist and thrown in prison ...if not shot.

Who Is A “Terrorist” In Biden’s America?

"In the latest sign that the US government’s War on Domestic Terror is growing in scope and scale, the White House on Tuesday revealed the nation’s first ever government-wide strategy for confronting domestic terrorism. While cloaked in language about stemming racially motivated violence, the strategy places those deemed “anti-government” or “anti-authority” on a par with racist extremists and charts out policies that could easily be abused to silence or even criminalize online criticism of the government."

One day it will be the United Nations flag and the man of sin the world will get their 666 for.

Global Citizens and all that.......

Juneteenth proves that our flag does not represent racism.

These people are so stupid

I'm reminded of a comment from Bill Bennett....if you're in a desperate battle and you hear an army coming over the hill. Whose flag do you want to see?

Idi Amin would be proud....

Macy Gray should get a new life and leave her mangy hands off our sacred and hallowed flag.
