There is nothing wrong with showing support for your tribute, but we must be respectful of it. It is perfectly stated when a man named Kirk Mayes, who has spoken out against claims made by flag haters, says, “The Confederate flag symbolizes racial oppression, but also Southern pride for many Southerners. It is truly a symbol of the past. Today it's about moving forward. We must be open to the spirit of forgiveness. Not by embracing its symbolism of hate, but by recognizing its relevance,” Mayes said. You have to be respectful of both sides of the flag, no matter how you see it. For me, after doing all my research on the topic and repurposing the image of the flag, I feel like the "White Privilege" flag isn't really a thing. There is a huge difference between people who see the flag as a symbol of history versus hate groups who use the symbol of the flag as a racist sign. The Confederate flag can be seen in the background of many Klu Klux Klan meetings and even today the Klan can be seen flying the flag high with pride. These extremists openly express the view that whites are supreme and degrade other ethnicities as something beneath them. “According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, more than 500 extremist groups use the Southern Cross as one of their symbols.” The symbol I'm talking about are the Confederate monuments that are filled throughout the South. They can be seen on the lawns of courthouse offices, government buildings, and even downtown in some southern locations. These monuments reflect the Civil War and show the memory of the soldiers who lost their lives fighting for the Confederacy. “The United Daughters of the Confederacy once described those producers of marble, bronze, and stone as memorials to the devotion, heroism, splendor, and resourcefulness of the Confederate Army” (Martinez 1). Of course, we see that the problem with these indicators is that 130 years after the war ended, we are still worshiping the soldiers who were potentially fighting to maintain slavery and uphold the old Southern ways. People might find the symbols very offensive and start asking questions and stirring up drama when they see some Southerners still idolizing the rebels who were technically America's outlaws who didn't want to conform to the
