African Americans, are you offended by the Confederate flag or the sight of a noose?
I’m just curious. Frankly, as a Jew, I see the confederate flag as the equivalent for blacks, as a nazi flag would be for Jews. Is a hanging noose just as offensive? I don’t see any place in society for the confederate banner, or nooses for that matter.
William F, So, should the nazi flag still be hung in Germany? Since it’s a part of thier history.
Gee, It seems I’m being called everything from an ignorant racist to a patriot, as usual here on YA. I’m going to let the people vote on this one. Thanks for the answers everyone
I agree with your comparison of the Confederate flag to Nazi flag. Nooses are associated with lynching, which was the post-Civil War response to how to keep black people in “their place” in spite of Emancipation. Thus, since they are associated with the gross mistreatment of blacks in a direct way they are offensive, too.
Believe it or not, President Bush made that connection at the White House just today in a speech honoring black history month.
You should also see the movie, “The Great Debaters” on this subject.

2nd National Confederate Flag (Stainless Banner) 3′x5′ Nylon $41 Our 3′x5′ 2nd National Confederate (Stainless Banner) nylon flags have the advantage of being strong yet lightweight enabling them to dry quickly and fly even in a slight breeze. These flags are finished with a canvas header and solid brass grommets.Did you know? The Second National Confederate Flag is frequently known as the G#Stainless Banner because of its pure white field, which eventually caused criticism. The white field was looked upon as a sign of truce and Military officers made complaints that when there was no wind and flag hung down, the Southern Cross would get hidden giving the illusion of an all white flag signifying truce. The Stainless Banner flag design ended up staying though and remaining to be a historical symbol for the Confederacy during the Civil War. This 2nd National Confederate flag was used from May of 1863 and stayed as the Confederacy flag until March of 1865. |

The Third National Confederate flag, also known as G#The Blood Stained Banner was brought into place on March 4th, 1865 right before the fall of the Confederacy. The red stripe on the fly end of the flag was first proposed by Major Arthur Rogers to try and eliminate the appearance of truce from the 2nd National flag style of all white. The 3rd National Confederate flag design was explained as having G#as little as possible of the Yankee blue and symbolized the people of the South. |
