"The battle over the Confederate Flag is on and Republicans are betraying their base." Jesse Lee Peterson (Video)

Another black Southerner is making sense.  Jesse Lee Peterson explains why the liberals and the GOP are trying to destroy Southern history.  He says: "The battle over the Confederate Flag is on and Republicans are betraying their base." and "Confederate Flag Haters Are Like ISIS Destroying Christian Artifacts."

Another Black SCV Member Stands Proudly for Dixie and His Confederate Ancestor

Tyrone Williams is not offended by the Battle Flag! His ancestor fought with the 16th South Carolina and he's very proud of it. Tyrone has Dixie as a ringtone on his telephone and a Confederate flag license tag on his pickup truck. He is a 'hard-core' Confederate of Camp 1857 in Leavenworth, Kansas. Folks don't mess with him because he's a retired deputy federal marshal, packs heat and is 6'2". God bless Tyrone for taking a stand!

Compatriot Williams is shown standing over the Confederate headstone of his ancestor.

Black veteran, a 'Son of the South,' defends the Confederate flag

Courtney Daniels

By Courtney Daniels, a Birmingham native, former U.S. Marine and veteran of Operation Enduring Freedom.

Mr. Daniels wrote a guest opinion for All Alabama, AL.COM, in which he defends the Confederacy and its flag, and tells of his own personal journey from animosity to admiration.  His well written and heartfelt essay should be read and appreciated by every Son and Daughter of the South.

He writes:

The removal of a historical banner won't stop racists from exercising bigotry. As a matter of fact, racists will be racists despite regulations and constant "feel good" legislation, no flag needed. The ignorance of the disgruntled protestors is evident in their refusal to acknowledge that the flag widely recognized as the "Confederate Flag" was never actually adopted as the flag of the Confederacy. They'll also never admit or realize that not only was slavery not the motivating factor for the ensuing civil war, but that slavery was an American institution, not a Confederate one.

The Confederacy, in its prime, never mounted the atrocities of the Trail of Tears or the Black Hills conspiracy. But it seems that all because a few cowards in bedsheets once hijacked the gorgeous colors of a banner so rich in history to terrorize and intimidate other Americans, we condemn the Southern cloth to oblivion as a misnamed symbol of hate. It doesn't matter that slaves outside of the declared boundaries remained enslaved in the North. Neither does it matter that many Southerners gave up plots of their property to house and provide compensable labor for black workers. It doesn't matter that Lincoln, who is often regarded as the liberator of enslaved blacks cared less for the welfare of slaves than for the sovereignty of an entire country.

Black supporters of the Confederacy appear daily, in growing numbers...and I LOVE IT.

More and more, black Confederates are making their appearance, in opposition to the cultural cleansing of the South.  These two bros display a flag with the caption "I Ain't Coming Down."

God bless them.

Black Lady Rebel Burns Lifetime NAACP Card to Protest Anti-Confederate Policies

Black Lady Rebel Burns NAACP Card to
Protest NAACP's Desire to Remove Confederate Images
from Stone Mountain in Georgia

From BuzzPo.com:

At a recent confederate flag rally, a woman going by the name ‘ArleneArmy’ on Twitter burned her lifetime membership NAACP card, partly due to their ignorant stance on the confederate battle flag.

Arlene said she was motivated to quit the NAACP after reading an article about the NAACP desiring to have heroes from the confederacy removed from the side of the mountain in Stone Mountain, Georgia. Arlene was nice enough to include the recent video of her burning her NAACP life membership card as well.

Black Member of Sons of Confederate Veterans says "The War Between the States WAS NOT about Slavery"

Al McCray, Member, Sons of Confederate Veterans

Al McCray is a black member of the Judah P. Benjamin Camp of Sons of Confederate Veterans, located in Tampa, Florida.  Compatriot McCray (we members of the Sons call each other "compatriot") sounds just like any one of us in his defense of the Confederacy. McCray said:

"I understand the true nature of the war, and slavery was not the primary issue," McCray said. "It was an issue of northern aggression and northern imperialism."

"I've always felt that way growing up in the south, that linking the flag to slavery and racism was just another way to keep division between the races. I always wondered why Lincoln didn't free the slaves his first day in office if he felt so strongly about it."

The article further quotes McCray:

Al McCray, Tampa Business Man

Despite the recent outcry over the Confederate battle flag and its symbolism, McCray said he is confident there are other black Americans that share his views. The confederacy was multicultural during the war, and so is the Sons of Confederate Veterans, he said.

McCray's comments about the multicultural nature of the Confederacy is ironically demonstrated in the name of his Sons of Confederate Veterans Camp name:  Judah P. Benjamin was a devout Jew who was Secretary of State of the Confederate States of America.

I googled Al McCray, and he is the Managing Editor of the Tampa News.  We have more in common:  Al likes to wear fedoras and bow ties, as I do.  Al's bow tie in this pic contains the Confederate flag.  I like this guy...a lot.

Meanwhile, read the entire article at this link.

Black Lady Defends the Confederacy and Its Flag (Video)

H.K. Edgerton and Karen Cooper

CHESTERFIELD, VA (WWBT) -

A Chesterfield woman is Black and proud to display the Confederate flag. The Virginia Flagger is speaking out and challenging stereotypes.

"I'm sick and tired of my White Christian southern friends being attacked," said Karen Cooper. "People displaying a flag is not a problem."

She's outraged over the Confederate battle flag being taken down after 9 South Carolina church members were murdered at the hands of Dylann Roof, often pictured holding the flag.

"They are trying to pin the murder of 9 people on a flag," said Cooper. "This is an inanimate object. It is right here. It is not harming me. It's not calling me bad names. It's not telling me to go kill people."

Cooper rejects the suggestion the flag is a symbol of racism or defenders of slavery.

"That is to say that I support the Confederacy," said Cooper. "I actually believe in my heart that they were good men."

Karen says Confederate soldiers fought for state's rights. She says it was not about slavery. 

"'State's rights means my rights....White's rights...over yours,'" said former Richmond city councilman Marty Jewell of the message sent by Confederate flaggers. "And if anybody can come up with another descriptive I'll eat their hat. The forces waving that flag are always happy to find a fool...a fool who will say what they won't say themselves but has a Black face."

Jewell says he feels sorry for Cooper. 

"The poor thing," said Jewell. " We pray for her."

Cooper says she is accustomed to being called names. 

"That's okay. I will fight for your freedom to call me names," said Cooper. "That's what the First Amendment is all about. God forbid they make it a law, and I can't wear this. That's when I'm going to jail, and I'm going to be back in chains like my ancestors." 

Cooper says she plans to be buried with the Confederate flag.

Former NAACP president H.K. Edgerton also defended the Confederate flag after protesters spray-painted "Black Lives Matter" on a Confederate monument in Asheville, North Carolina.

Young Black Man Tells Why He Supports the Confederate Flag (Video)

In spite of this CNN interviewer's anti-flag bias and ignorance of history, this young descendant of a black Confederate refuses to accept her definition of the Confederate flag as a "racist symbol." There are many Southern blacks who identify with the Confederate flag, for the same reason many white Southerners do: it was the flag of our nation, and slavery and racism have nothing to do with it.

 

Thank You, Southern Blacks for Supporting the Confederate Flag! (Photos)

It's nice to know that not all black people have their heads up their butts.  Brothers and sisters, we are proud of you!
