Video at link. So the prof is trying to evoke, yet another, ho hum, honest dialog about race. I wonder what his reaction would be if Terry Jones tries to pull off another koran burning?
So does this mean every kid who has a replica of the General Lee Charger is a White privileged racist?

Paying attention to people like this is like feeding trolls.

I’m from the south, born and raised. The Rebel flag is an important symbol to me because it represents a region of the country that I identify with as being similar to my moral beliefs. That’s all. It simply means The South to me. Burn it if ya like homie, whatever. It’s not like our Nations Flag or anything. My family has lots of blood under the Red,White,and Blue. Likely to feed that one to ya if you try to light it up.

Someone should start burning rainbow flags and see how they like it.

The Confederate flag is a flag of terror from its use by the Klan in the 20s to the anti-civil rights movement in the 50s and 60s. Wrong flag, dufus.

A guy in my area has a Smarty Car painted up as the General Lee. I guess he’s just a little racist.

I wonder if Julian has made the connection between the Florida State Flag and the CS Battle flag yet?

These people who hate the confederate flag still believe that the people who died under it, died for slavery.
Such ignorance of history.
I know that there were some who did, but I haven’t heard of a single son of the south fighting for slavery.
There is no question that slavery was an element of the events that sparked the war.

Someone needs to “inform” this Prof that MOST Slaves came to America under the Stars and Stripes, NOT the Stars and Bars.

Well, he is chairman of a history department. Why would you expect him to know anything about history?
