judging this, i'm just going to go on the billing system to allude to what i see these teeny buses. the little gear motivation says don't boston new me or? oh i, i now have an email folder called k k. mm. your call is for your organization and what is your response? i'm proud to be a very big main started up the last god. it

was right in this world. i guess they must be around and go one actually just a bunch of homes that are measure your gulf or a local or state flag. they walk our biggest so being that we're stand up to what we believe was was right. mystic reading coalition. others are not lacking to mess just their name. one of the client knew each person well, the class christian overlaid me. people need to know that groups like this to still exist that this hate, this ideology is, is intact behind a lot of the support for the state flag. we must awaken white race to mislead and mattie damn class, man, mom, mom or better. just remember one day why he is not going to stand by and watch more,

a need like a not trying to change the k k k mind. i'm not trying to change the league of the south mind. i'm not trying to change the dixie alliance as mine. i'm trying to change mississippians that are good and he said, care about their neighbors that maybe don't fully understand blue . what impact a flag has on people that it hurts. the less i'm we saw you. you were new orleans, what was going through your mind during all that? it was crazy. if absolutely not something i never thought i received my letter. but it happened and you know, i rested. i need to work on my smile on understand,

make sure that they released on the news. yes ma'am. here when i took my shot, because i was happy health prior to what i did. i mean a southerners are getting tired of your entire being picked out. we get beat down and talk bad about all the time, especially certain people we talk about, mean acre, everything like that. and you know, i'm far from it. i'm far from making. i mean, i'm an engineer, you know, i'm, i have a little southern drought, not talk a little slow, but i'm far from it. now. they want to start coming to our identity as southerners, you know, things that way. it makes us a better saying they want to erase it and why? why want to write something that happened in this country? you know, market you learn from because any time you are right or, and that's why i'm saying today is we're fixing to start repeating history and things keep going in the bible and table that will be exactly what's gonna happen.

the whites are going to be putting fame accounts for, you know, are going to put out the slave labor, minorities your own, take over everything and you know, but my business specialist. otherwise being put up there, then on the right, they'd rather die. you have a sense of where this is adam or a, a with i've condemned many different,

but not all of those people were neo nazis. believe me, you add people to that group that were there to protest. so taking them a very, very support that you, they're responding to something that they say in the culture that they are aggrieved. i'm not to say why people are wrong to, to rally around the pride and erase because their bios allowed to be part of the race. i'm proud to be a white man. i'm not afraid to say that. i don't know i should be oh, if they'd ask me, i would say, don't do it at night. no do torches because it doesn't. it looks militant, but that's what they were going right into their, their thinking back to time. we're white, we're in charge of everything. ah,

i'm glad john became president. why? because a bow old, the hatred in old, the racism. there was hayden from the world that made people feel comfortable when, like, we have arrived in the school by. yeah. because the anti christ has to show up for jesus to show, well what do you think the last year since then what's your, what's your take on it? it didn't surprise me. it always has existing here in mississippi we always have failed. we say it was the yet the hatred, the oppression though systemic racism, institutionally. we've always, hey, i feel my nephews. oh logan. they are black little was

do you honestly think they had the same opportunity as the little wible? no. i'm a part of the poor people campaign where we're engaging in 40 days. wow. now rate action, civil disobedience around voters operation on mass incarceration. the corrections system plays on the pool and apps a porch meant for an example. hard to me was building on the idea of come, big leasing. so there was just the continuation of slavery. they dictate in control those men and women, there's a lot of new create amongst those. when you take away all of their rights, you truly amazed is built humans. that's what they are back in. in flavor. they did

they, they beta, they say a medium today for nothing. they just come in and beat the hell out of them. so you tell me that is not the ideologies of comparison to keep people in bondage in the confederacy. dressed up in a $5000.00 a day now a . 7 ah,

ah, why? now one bad news today, a crew from cbs eating news is coming in from a studio. you know, another fun day for an introvert. and one of the chances of this fly flying a top of the state. i was wondering. i was a 100 percent. that's a new flag for a new mississippi designed by a granddaughter of the old south. the status flag is a hit more business is fly it in jackson, the state capitol than flight. the state was at a complete flag source,

the status why i got cells, the states official flag for to one. it is one of the only things and has toxic local environment that has bridge parties, transcended the toxicity. and of that, i am immensely proud and happy or restful. every good. good. good. mm hm. things are moving at a much slower pace that i had ever anticipated when i 1st got involved with. and i'm learning just how nuanced and how slow the wheels of progress here in mississippi. mm hm. it's a gallery of white male ally of mississippi. with there's, there's not one portrait, more honorarium of any sort to

a person of color in the state capitol. so i would like to remind everybody in my renewal that the man to renew long with going out are we are still fighting. i just want them, you know, then we will continue. so let's be clear just because you don't the doesn't mean we're not here. oh, a i 3 years had passed since i began working on this film.

the flag of 1894 was still flying above the capital. and it felt like a solution was even further out of reach. like a dream deferred. ah, i wondered where all this anger and frustration would lead without dialogue or compromise. when those who had the power to solve the problem, lack the courage to do anything. to play with gale. so many people ah ah ah ah

ah ah ah ah

ah need to come to russian state will never be tied as i'm phoning most landscape with within the 50 bab, with we will ban in the european union. the kremlin. ca yep. machine. the state on russia to date and r t spoke neck, even our video agency, roughly all band on youtube with

ah, ah, ah, what's your sense of on that all which is that ah, to be honest, hope, pardon me, a shame because disgrace. somebody else, is there more?

who is this just found the same way at the disgrace when i see it. i always come in love in peace when i do anything and i know a lot of people are not like they you know, my mom came in and he got her jail and b get the dow thick down so i don't know. but i do know that until we change the system, not the nasa which we have to change to 5th and we can't change the hearts and minds of people who believe they did not a symbol. oh, faith in racism. when i left that afternoon, i thought the story was over, and one thing was becoming clear to me. what you believe about the flag depends

upon who you are. but there are truths here, and the truth is uncomfortable. mississippi succeeded from the union to preserve slavery. they said so very clearly. ah, but the soldiers fought for other reasons to their families, their homes, a fierce desire for self determination. mm. and so we can believe that the can. edward flag has brought feelings of pride and affection to generations of mississippians whose ancestors fought and died under it . mm. it's also true that the confederate flag represents a defeated southern nation that in trying the right of a white person to own a black person, its constitution, and that same flag is favored by white supremacists today. right?

so when black mississippians tell us at the confederate flag is a hurtful reminder of the brutal and inhumane treatment of their ancestors. we can believe them too. it's all true. there's both a sacrifice and an injustice that people of good faith can acknowledge. the question remained. what would it take to force a reckoning of these truths? nearly 2 years later, in the midst of a pandemic, we learned the answer. ah, you remember the video of last night's confrontation shows a white police officer with his knee pinning down the neck of the south bank. the

vase you to run with forgery is reminiscent of dirt garners very same words. i can breathe with nearly 8000 people, join black lives matter, mississippi to march the streets of downtown. jackson wasn't near voices to her, not just in the magnolia estate, but across the country. one way, joy, a meeting. ah, think about me in your nick for 8 minutes and 40 thinking. mm hm.

i think that the main number line we amanda were mobile. oh, a with in our to the black last not a protest pressure on the legislature intensified momentum is building did change, mississippi thank flag. even as the legislative session winds down wal mart as joining in the fight against the state flag announcing it will remove the state flag from its mississippi stores for the most influential voices to remove mississippi's flag come from faith leaders across the state. the us marine corps is now banning all depictions of the confederate battle flag at all marine installations. united states navy plans to ban confederate flags all public space from workers. coaches from every mississippi public university lobbied law makers to remove the state flag classroom to the governor. deborah housman is changing his

tune, calling for the legislature to vote on the flag now. ah, it seems like it's coming to ahead with this potential both to me. it's mighty funny that an event that happened, you know, 1037 miles away from jackson, mississippi, is impacting mississippi. with an overwhelming vote of 85 to 35. it says that the law makers name's favor. i'm efforts to change their state slang. the call to serve the lives of black mississippians in this moment led to an unexpected turn. there is a major changed to one of the options that could be an alternative to mississippi is current state. black boston is a designer of what has been known as the student flag is stepping away from the project in a continued effort to be of service. i'll be stepping away from this endeavor,

as i understand the hurt and potential harm. my last name can cause, but i'll always continue to fight for mississippi and her people, which i consider both a duty and a joy. mississippi needs and deserves a new flag. help make it sound. lauren. back at the capital confederate heritage supporters held rallies to express their frustration with the legislature. what are you willing to give? what do you want to buy for? legislature take our flag about allowing citizens to have vote at the really anger the law they rob us of the way. i mean we miss if you already voted on it 2001 and they just took that away. they ignored in

anger. betrayal, vision, absolute sickness. how can you put bite in a politician military? well tell you your voice on your boat. your folks want to put in tonight. i'm signing a law to turn a page in mississippi by retiring them. why we in 90 more. more commer. naming the ring when i don't hear

from me ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, ah, ah,

in history that witness and i think are off they can be a better place for you to come in a ways we want to court here today, me legislation to change the state flag called for a commission to come up with a new design. i'm a new flag, cannot contain any symbols of the confederacy and it must include the words and god, we trust me. the commission solicited ideas for a new flag and to receive thousands of online submissions. they chose a magnolia design with 20 white stars, signify mississippi as the 20th state to join the union. the gold star at the top

of the circle represents mississippi's 1st peoples, the indigenous native american tribes of the land that would become mississippi. in november of 2020 mississippi voters approved the new design by a wide margin. and now our neighbors fly. the new mississippi state flag ah ah with

ah, ah, what we've got to do identify the threats that we have. it's crazy foundation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successfully, very difficult time. time to sit down and talk about them was

a recall with with you i guess with you i'm with political chris got to boot from beach still these are
