I agree with smcbride. History needs to be told in full. I also find it interesting that a flag that was once our own and reminds many of slavery is so anathema to some that it cannot be flown. However the British flag which at one time stood for religious persecution in our country is often flown and we forget about our fight for independence from them. I guess the wound of the civil war is still so fresh it’s a little early to poor salt in it.
