To address the truths of the Confederate flag, and Denounce the discrimination of American heritage.

As of lately there has been much discrimination towards people of southern heritage due to the immense pride in their confederate flags. The war between the south and the north has long since died out, but the lives it cost both sides are very real. Sweeping a image of national history under the rug like this is offensive to all the people who's family as one point in time died for their flag. What this flag means to people like me is It represents the rebellious nature of our country that shined in the days of our forefathers. THAT BUILT THIS COUNTY. but it's being condemned because ignorance to it's meaning. I cannot stand idle while this country rids itself of our history.
Further more, northern territories throughout the war still held slaves as well, Both sides were no different.
