There is a Maoist cultural revolutionary energy happening right now, we're seeing Washington and Jefferson statues torn down, and you think a little appeasement will make a difference. At some point normal people have to stand for normal civilization and society and tell these people, "no".
    So let me get this straight, because "THEY" might, sometime in the future, want to go too far in removing things, but want to keep, per the people that voted for it at the time, things created "to exclude the Negro." and "to secure to the State of Mississippi, 'white supremacy'" and " to maintain white supremacy"? This is where you think we should draw the line? You want to support that?

    More you want that to continue to define the State?

    Quote below from the legislators that chose the Flag...

    [...] Let's tell the truth if it bursts the bottom of the Universe. [...] We came here to exclude the Negro. Nothing short of this will answer.

    ? Solomon Saladin "S.S." Calhoon, Mississippi Constitutional Convention of 1890,


    [...] It is the manifest intention of this Convention to secure to the State of Mississippi, 'white supremacy'. [...]

    ? Delegate George P. Melchior of Bolivar County, Mississippi Constitutional Convention of 1890, (D-MS), emphasis added.

    [...] What are you here for, if not to maintain white supremacy? [...]

    ? Delegate Will T. Martin of Adams County, Mississippi Constitutional Convention of 1890, (D-MS)

    [...] no advancement, no invention, no history, no literature, no governmental polity. We see only ignorance, slavery, cannibalism, no respective, cannibalism, no respect for women, no respect for anything [...] not inventive, not progressive, not resourceful, not energetic [...]

    ? Solomon Saladin "S.S." Calhoon, Negro Suffrage, (1890), by S.S. Calhoon, Jackson, Mississippi: Commonwealth Steam Print.[3][4]

    [...] Negro suffrage is an evil, and an evil [...]

    ? Solomon Saladin "S.S." Calhoon, Negro Suffrage, (1890), by S.S. Calhoon, Jackson, Mississippi: Commonwealth Steam Print.[3][4]

    [...] The negro race seems unable to maintain even its own imitative acquirements. It seems unfit to rule. Its rule seems to mean, as it has always meant, stagnation, the enslavement of woman, the brutilization of man, animal savagery, universal ruin. [...]

    ? Solomon Saladin "S.S. Calhoon, Mississippi Constitutional Convention of 1890, (1890)

    There is no use to equivocate or lie about the matter. [...] Mississippi's constitutional convention of 1890 was held for no other purpose than to eliminate the ****** from politics. Not the 'ignorant and vicious', as some of the apologists would have you believe, but the ******. [...] Let the world know it just as it is.

    ? James K. Vardaman,


    They do not object to negroes voting on account of ignorance, but on account of color.

    ? The Clarion-Ledger,

    In Mississippi we have in our constitution legislated against the racial peculiarities of the Negro. [...] When that device fails, we will resort to something else.

    ? James K. Vardaman,
