her ah a 2 a one with the other to the emergency aid it it'd be

bush bad, the police and some by the way, the way the manual charge. a manual there'd be one tempo. and there's people thought the chat the past. like if you had all the amended, would you please come right away? did you see him at all? yes, he's a young to anyone. you a white dude. mm. a multiple neighbor down. what happened at the mother of manuel and the church in charleston, south carolina. in the summer of 2015 was almost to her rhythm to comprehend a white gun been stormed into a bible study. now you church members die right before god another. these people were in church around church. what do we know about?

oh, this man is, and what is motivation may have been said, are you rape our women and you take it over our country and you have to go shortly after dylan roof was captured, investigators found a racist manifesto. he posted on line, along with dozens of images, posing that confederate harriet sites and with confederate flags. mm. mm. now the focus of the nation's outrage shifted from the killer himself to the symbol that seemed to contain within its borders. all the racial hatred and roofs hart or the backlash was swift. terrific shooting has re ignited a highly sensitive debate over the confederate flag. this flag has become a symbol of murder, of racism from hatred. and it is clearly a symbol of this killer. the conversation we're having about the confederate flag has been about moral empathy, seeing the flag for others eyes. you know,

at the moment for society to really do a gut check of our values, corporate giants like e bay target and wal mart stopped selling the items bearing the confederate flag, telling me right now literally just now in the last couple of minutes. unless last few minutes, amazon just pull the flag as well from around. even nascar, an icon of traditional southern culture turned against the flag with an appeal to patriotism. they tell us got a special offer for race fans as we can trade in your confederate flag for an american lot. anti flag momentum reached a climax when president obama delivered the eulogy for mother emanuel pastor clemente pinkney moving the flag from the states. capital would not be an act of political correctness, not in salts, of the balance of confederate sold me simply me an acknowledgement that the cause for which they fall in the cause of slavery was then

2 weeks later the flag came down in south carolina. oh, just to say if i give gain a lot of attention as all because of this, the revel, banner rehab with your art for me, you know, i'm not going to you care about me. if you care about this bridge, the story is to hold fixed a. do you think the confederate flag of the fed? as you can see, it's about even i wish somebody could just tell me why this sets there are government is sanctioning that shows and symbol of a terrorist organization on our state. far. i love the seminar. i love the in the southern bell. i think we had the most beautiful flag we need to fight. i. my problem is the safe place to

with everyone in not a time in history. and what they're gonna do is they're trying to fill us as mississippians that we should change. we're not gonna change. you know, i don't live here a i was born and raised in the north or my irish. great, great grandfather, michael o'connor was an officer of the union army. i married a mississippian and of course we live here now. the main street,

the neighboring town is not called main street. it's jeff davis avenue, named after jefferson davis, a mississippi plantation owner and us senator, who advocated for the expansion of slavery into the new territory. and he was elected president of the confederacy. there's another jeff davis avenue, a short drive away me and jefferson davis's home in presidential library is just up the highway like many mississippi county's our court house at the monument to confederate soldiers. and some of our neighbors flew the state flag in their yards . something i'd never seen any place else. so yes, in mississippi remnants of the confederacy are everywhere. but even at the civil war relics, joe and brandon, mississippi change seem inevitable. tell me what sort of interactions are you having with folks who are interested in buying mississippi. paypal or buying

mississippi state play more than usual. evidently, there must be a shortage on arriving somewhere. in it a shame. okay, my name is tim cupid. i'm a member of the funds, a confederate veteran. when i started doing my family research, i found that my family hold on both sides union and confederate, but if some people lane laugh, some people lane, right? well, i lean out, we want people to remember our past what our ancestors went through. and this drives that we made the day i appreciate you being here, and i hope that when you're doing your documentary that you present both sides

positive manner and, and let people make demand for themselves. i understood that confederate heritage, supporters like tim might be suspicious of my intentions. i am a yankee after all. i assured him and everyone else i spoke to the film that i wasn't going to choose aside. mister bate. and i wasn't here to judge anyone. i simply wanted to understand why mississippians were so divided over state flag whose purpose should be to unite us, me ah ah me

sons are considered veterans purposes, not defend confederate govern purposes, to defend the good name of the confederates told him that you take, which i take very seriously because these monuments that you see everywhere or not, can there not monuments to the better government there monuments to the, to the soldiers, to the veterans. most of them came back terribly wanted. ah, those men are masters of some sort. and that's not true. and i can't just sit there while that story gets told this. i know it's not true. of course for me. i'm fascinated with mississippi history and particularly because the census and 1840 i

think is the 1st one. everybody here was 20 years old. everybody. there are no open anywhere and they were coming to absolutely raleigh and. and then within 20 years of that you're fighting for your existence as a nation. ah, you know, that's ah, that's how we got here was these people were determined to live robin over the sanction. do not do it again, only which reward anus any, pardon for anything are done flip this state flag issue never would have been brought back up if it wasn't for what happened on june. the 17 in

charleston, south carolina. they want you to believe that that flag grew handlers came down that paul walked in that church and he all those people it was a human being that did that, not a flag. open your mouth. open your mouth. oh, we keep them your mouth open, it are. does something. what the concussion every flag has its history. it has its pride and dark parts. we won't talk about dark parts. you know, we can mention how slavery was brought in under the u. s. flag. there's videos of this one organization marching down. i believe it's pennsylvania avenue in washington,

d. c. and they're only flying the u. s. y again. why not be offended because of that black. you know, if we're going to be offended by everything, every negative part of our history, we have to get rid of everything with . if you say you are fighting for your heritage where your heritage was based, own money and power in the only way you could get money and power here. and this is, if you kill a decent franchise, people enslaved plain and simple always knew what the confederate emblem made to us is an african americans. but what can you tell me what it always meant you catering lynchings,

beatings, poverty. why supremacy is just the disgusting ambulance. i feel that way because i leave it look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such short or conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. and the point obviously is to great trust, rather than fear i would like to take on various job with artificial intelligence. real, somebody with a robot must protect its own existence with

a with, with both both the models you need to do both got nothing new with a over as government perform nobody. a lot of them bought a they need that they're leaving any that account. tanya, normally with

a personal number you have that with a with this whole issue is really a series dish and you have to look beyond that. something's always just the red. but it's not just the way it represents inequality as yet versus hatred. and a flag was always present like it was,

is south carolina a a

funds of confederate batteries and members of the k k k. i say that they are christians. i just, it is my hope in mind is that god will push them to put tre. christine, how do you change the heart of a man? well, the law may not change my house of men in a dog chamber. habits of men. when you are begun by happened to men who it is only added, who did j phone off will be june. my mother, she all for welfare wise for women. they holster down with hoses. she still held the bite marks owner laid from the doll. and she also went to jail and i was like

to know this, my mamma. why? why not? i mean, she's the sweetest person. oh no. why would somebody do that to her? it was appalling when the news came on about the shooting. mamma say that they don't make no sense. if i stood up and went to jail and get beat for human rights and civil rights and welfare rights, ya'll better do something. and when she say a yell, better do something. we did something. i'm the director of a play pile mississippians coalition. i've just been going around trying to raise awareness about the importance of removing the confederate emblem from our state flag. it's gonna be hard, but is 9 impasse. you just have to keep pushing and keep striving. i just my

god for, oh, ah, grace and mercy. because you need a whole lot more than you would have been march from g r, lead street to the state capital calling for change in the state flag. we just need a flag that were unified. everyone in not long after i met sharon's, she stepped away from her leadership role with the flag for all mississippians initiative. due to health reasons. it would be some time before i could talk to sharon on camera again. she found an ally in lea, a campbell, an anti flag activist on the mississippi gulf coast. for me as a white woman, it's incumbent upon me as a, as a white mississippi, and a person of privilege is my privilege to do what i can to dismantle

a system of white supremacy and symbols of white supremacy that my ancestors created. a song that still exist here and it would be naive me or anyone else to deny the matter in charleston happen. and i distinctly remember seeing the photo dylan roof posing with the confederate fire and reading his blog post. and then watch governor nikki haley. have the courage to take that confederate emblem down from south carolina state house ground. it really made me angry that our governor and our legislators could not display the same

courage. oh, so i knew i had to get involved. were fighting for the soul and me right now. in america. do you think it made them feel when they everywhere laid her? that why is why, what are we on better than than mindy is better than bad news . ah, this wasn't the 1st time mississippians have russell over their flag,

993. the double a c p to the state to change the flag for familiar reasons. about that lawsuit, whether the discovery that due to a legislative air in 1906, mississippi did not have an official state flag in 2001 governor. ronnie must grove decided to settle the issue with a statewide referendum, asking voters to choose between 2 flags. the current flag at the time which had been adopted and $894.00 and a new design. now the mississippi flag is wavering at this time, voters will decide if the confederate symbol will fall. the flag of 8941 by nearly 2 to one margin, settling the issue for the time being the flag of 894 was adopted. just 4 years after mississippi had convened

a constitutional convention to write a new state constitution for civil war had ended 30 years earlier. and although black mississippians made up nearly 60 percent of the states population, only one of the convention delegates was black. reconstruction was over and white, mississippi had regained political control from the majority, black population to violence and intimidation. and a newly formed crew klux klan, the president of the convention made it clear that their goal was to circumvent the 15th amendment, which prohibited the government from denying a citizen the right to vote based on race. let's tell the truth if at 1st the bottom of the university said we came here to exclude the other convention. delegates confirmed this notion me. aah!

mississippi's constitution of $1890.00 included a poll tax and a literacy test that effectively prevented generations of black citizens from voting until the passage of the voting rights act. some 75 years later it was in this political climate that the flag of 1894 was born. ah, back all the flag trade, the plato, but the flags all over the story. you know, because i got the horizontal williams hanging out. so i was like, wow, that's a flag. so i'm a true blooded, southern mississippi, southern main, and accepted and i relish in it because that's who i am. that's who, where my family is, came from. my family as live in the state of mississippi before it even became

a state of the union. i'm a direct descendant of james jefferson. johnson is my great, great great grandfather. he fought in the 41st mississippi infantry. this is my son's a confirmed veteran certificate. what really got me just fired about well known and some kind of confederate organization is because of what's going on in the country discrimination against black people, discrimination against and use with discrimination against us or what about discrimination against others. they accused us of all being racist, you know, and it's a fan of a 1000000 is what the flag means, a lot of people and that's why i like k k and other groups used to play the part that me off the worst is i wish my ancestors would have put a stop to it before you know, a got to the point that is today. we're anytime i say that played out a magazine. take a tape person,

me what is referred to as a confederate flag. graphically it's however, you can separate it from all that it is stood for and a negative sounds. i'd love for us to have a symbol about which people had no evidence whatsoever. we're at a moment where we can do this right and well and respectfully draw involved. i don't like name calling. i don't want rallies where people are yelling back and forth all along the way from the way i present things. the way i design a flag. i want everybody to have a stitch, a thread, and that new design. and i hope to be that middle ground, that landing point for folks who, you know, as time has passed and they come along, i think. and right now we need something new. it began with a whole lot of sketching, a lot of note taking a lot of research, a flag really as

a living symbol and document and piece of art that there $900.00 stars along the outer edge. we were the 20th state to join the union. the color, red symbolizes passion and blood. i chose a color white as a field because it represents elimination spirituality promise. and i thought that was an appropriate way to bring together all of these elements and all of these aspects of our history. and our story. of course, my grandfather was a us senate and i, he was one of the co authors and signers at the southern manifesto, which was a reaction against brown vs board of education. integrating schools. and he was involved in the oppression of african americans in our state by way of policy. but i still love my grandfather. his personal motto was look ahead and he did, he eventually changed himself to on that issue. lauren's flag design known as this dennis flag quickly became popular and caught the attention of state representative

kathy sikes, who was the 1st legislator to advocate for the stanish flag as a viable alternative to the flag of 18. 94 ah, a border with muscles, if you look on the initial be one of club masika had you post on zillow while diaz can used to put value, what would you do? do orchard? but he also with saddam results, if you're a similar to like, want to thought that all gone wrong with you, but i see these,
