the i met representative of sites at a rally in washington, d. c. t introduced his dentist while i do. a gallery of mississippians who had travelled there to demand a new state flag by laurence as i love it. and the thing is, you know, we had a discussion with a bunch of, i saw this flag and fell in love with it. and i really liked it. when i found out that the design of the lord is dennis lauren is the grand daughter of send it to johnston. he represented doing a time of jim crow where they thought that separate but equal was okay. is just so important to me, to accept that over time and through the generations of people change on the hip hop. why they are,
2:32 am
you feel pops when light in and inspires us. i respect honoring your ancestors ion or mine. and that's kind of, i feel where the clash happens because no one's going to back down from that. but i need you to acknowledge the brutality that was carried out under that banner. and once you can do that, then hopefully a dialogue can begin. and we can come to some sort of agreement because i'd rather have you as my neighbor and then my enemy, we value the clock, the hey, nothing more to say. so almost 2 months the, the,
2:33 am
[000:00:00;00] the, it's pretty flag that's about the extent of it. it does not replace what we have to understand, you know, the 20 stars the significance and what the meaning of that supposed to be, but nothing about it. honors confederate, veterans, or of the soldiers. nothing. the cemetery that we're going to can i say cemetery. it's not much of a cemetery is just a few grades. but to me this is what our state flag is about. this is why our flagship or my in the side
2:34 am
the this was originally just a small family cemetery. bell railroad tracks are in the same place. those are and they ran from meridian to jackson, around the vicksburg. soldiers died on the train right up here. they didn't even know the names of the soldiers. these are some of the files and who fall in dod and their families, never heard from them again to know where they were buried. what happened to them this one right here, it says a 6 brave soldier, sleep here and that's kind of feel about it. they were brave,
2:35 am
they're honorable. they didn't fight to preserve slavery like fault because their home was invited because their, their state ask them to and it was honorable thing that the, the of the how can you say that when, when that cause that you say that they fall. so nobody 4 was girded up by slavery. and then you know, the whole reason for mississippi getting into the civil war, they say very plainly,
2:36 am
it's about preserving slavery. this stuff that it goes back almost to our founding industry. that the belief that america is white. and anybody else in the country has to bab down to the white man's room. so it's about white supremacy. it's about power and control. it's about maintaining the status quo. and any kind of change occurs in this country where it is progress made towards diversity. is responded to as it is a threat to the white if we're going to change this flag in some ways white going to have to stand and step up. and it's got to have to use the legislation the last
2:37 am
legislative session. there were 19 bills related to the flag the session there 22. all of those bills related to change or means by which we could change the flag has been introduced by african american legislators. the bills for in support of the current state fired have all been introduced by white male conservative legislators in 2001 the people in mississippi voted on a flag and 65 percent of the people. ready voted to keep the current flag. well, i don't think we as elected representatives have the right to overturn their decision. now, whether you like it or not, we can argue about that. but the decision was made by the people of mississippi to keep the current flag. so do you have a personal feeling about the flag? i personally believe that we should keep the flag. i think that the narrative that
2:38 am
any little maurine thing there that harkens back to the civil war is somehow racist or in support of slavery is just wrong. what we have to do is spend the time to educate every one of or what's the real history, yet the, the belief that the flag issue will be settled when we all understand the real history of the civil war is attractive. but which part of the history considered a heritage supporters argue that the civil war was not sought to free the slaves because abraham lincoln himself subs. so in his original inaugural address, he said, if i could preserve the union for free and all the slaves, i do that i can preserve the union, but for some slight sense, i can preserve the use of a phrase though slight. keywords,
2:39 am
preserve him though lincoln was morally opposed to slavery. he held common racist police. and then there's the court when amendment amendment was proposed to actually legalize. and i tried to propose it to the southern people to get them to, to join, get back in the union, but they did not, and they didn't want to have any part of it. all had, have been a mile with slavery in the core and amendments would have fix that. because it stated that the south to perpetually keep this peculiar institution which referred to slavery. if they would not succeed from here to the core. one amendment passed both houses of congress and 18. 61 lincoln in his 1st and all girl address said he would not interfere with it. had the car when amendment been adopted before the civil war began, it would have provided a constitutional protection for slavery. in the united states,
2:40 am
and it would have been the 13th amendment, the mississippi made it clear that they succeeded to protect slavery. in part because they believed that black people were better suited to work in the oppressive heat requirement for picking cotton. and some white mississippians feared that emancipation wouldn't just mean economic ruin. it would lead to something they fear, even more racial equality. this was made clear when a commissioner named william l. harris was sent to georgia to persuade them to join mississippi in seceding from the union. and form a southern confederacy of slaveholding states and an address to the georgia general assembly. he said, our fathers made this a government for the white man projecting, and there was an ignorant, inferior barbarian race, incapable of self government. he considered his speech, saying,
2:41 am
mississippi would rather see the last of her race, men, women, and children, stimulated and one common funeral pyre, can see them subjugated to the deck, redemption of civil, political, and social equality within the race. georgia joined the confederacy. 3 months later with our previous president, there was nothing but a big hey. and it seemed like there was more of a, a war of a race war more space on the was really what it was. this isn't a racial thing, not by any means. and we don't say for anything racial at all, we were out here were standing for southern pride, the news, the february with his prize very well. don't believe that we're going to be able to tom, it set out and everybody finally get this risk because this flag don't stand for
2:42 am
racism is just our heritage sit on the table and hash out to play. it come to an understanding that this is the way that we feel, regardless how you feel, you know, the way you feels while you, we're, we can't change. we're not asking you to change that. we're asking you to come to of a place in your life where you can excel, what we do as we say, of what you do, what the odds of that happening are slim. and i honestly believe it freedoms that style to allow us. i believe people will relax a little more and that's all racy religions, the united states flag and flag of 18. $94.00 is the symbol of the mississippi that adopted the constitution of $1890.00 mississippi's governor. at that time, james argument unabashedly stated,
2:43 am
mississippi's constitutional convention of 1890 was held for no other purpose than to eliminate or from politics. let the world know it just as it is. governor of argument also said, if it is necessary and every in the state will be list and it will be done to maintain white supremacy, sometimes your people say, oh, it's just, it is such a bad place. quite frankly, things like that. that's fine. we can stay wherever they are and what is if i didn't want. ready if you don't find a place where you can be great, and i can say, if you don't like it, you can go somewhere. you been here for more than a century in the flag is still what it is to me. no, i wanna take the flag away,
2:44 am
