“I don’t think that anyone can argue now that it no longer represents
racism. Whatever you want to say about cultural heritage, that flag
doesn’t represent anything but racism now – and it especially
represents racism to black folks, which is reason enough for white folks
not to ever fucking wear it. It’s disrespectful and a form of terrorism
to subject them to it.”
“I lived all of my life in the South until I
was 50 years old and I don’t believe that Southern culture is the Civil
War. I believe it’s the least of Southern culture. To me Southern
culture is Faulkner and Tennessee Williams and the blues and jazz. To
make the Civil War who we are as Southerners is a huge mistake.”
--Steve Earle
