The War between the states was about state’s rights, an issue whch is still highly relevant today...I understand those who think of the Stars and Bars as a racial issue because the issue of slavery, among other things, was one of the issues that brought states’ rights issues to the forefront. However, it was states’ rights, and the federal government has been an ever increasing monolith, and states’ rights are being eroded every year. Think how much freedom the ssttes would have if the federal funding system did not deny funds to those states who did not agree?
I also therefore understand the talk of the South will rise again...Life is so full of nuance, isn’t it?
The what???
