Residents in Newburyport are demanding that the City Council replace the Massachusetts flag and seal, claiming that the imagery is problematic and helps promote the state’s racist history. According to the Newburyport Daily News, the Council received a resolution on Feb. 27 asking them to support the work of the Special Commission Relative to the Seal and Motto of the Commonwealth. The Commission, in part, recommended replacing the seal and flag to better reflect the diverse residents now living in Massachusetts.

.....any state (actually, Mass. is a Commonwealth...) that keeps re-electing that living corpse, Edward Markey and that phony Indian, Elizabeth Warren, to the U.S. Senate, can’t be taken seriously....
Outraged people need to go find another country to live in. They can call it “The People’s Republic of Outragia” or something like that.
Well, they are.
we will need to drive them out ...
...they would still be living in mud huts and throwing spears at each other...
Since the latest black B S narrative is 'blacks built America' (rather than that ALL of us built America)...
And since American slaves were the black people captured or dumped by black tribes in Africa (those blacks easily caught or unwanted) - then sold by black tribe leaders to slavers...
Why didn't those blacks who weren't captured and sold by black Africans tribal leaders able do the equivalent in Africa? To 'built Africa' like the folks they sold "built America"?
It is pointless to give in on any of these demands. Why, because if you give in, they just come up with another demand. There is no end of it.
By showing an American Indian in front of the shield. Not as victim, but as protagonist.
Somebody has no idea how heraldry works, even ugly American heraldry.
I don’t care about the world but I want them in charge of where I live.
Clear cut case of Anti-whitism.
Lot of that goin’ on...
“The People’s Republic of Outragia”
Perfect!
When the locals start changing the names of all their towns, cities and state, then they can take a look at the flag.
As opposed to the racism against white people present day we live in.
Ironic, isn’t it?
you’ll see that again... 8^)
Progressives are bored...again.
Leftists in maine are trying to get rid of the maine flag that has a farmer and a fisherman on it and replace it with a kindergarten level picture of a pine tree a d a star that had some historical significance but was seen as the primitive art it was.
They are attempting to introduce it as a license plate and I notice all the leftist trendoids now fly it.
Damned I hate how leftists take away our history piece by piece.
You are correct. When I was in elementary school in Chatham, Massachusetts in the 1950’s we learned that there are two sides to the state flag and that these sides were different. Good luck trying to find one of those flags or even a description of the older version.
