Some New News About an Old War.
1. MINNESOTA FLAG ATTACK-- The May 6th Minnesota Sun had an article about teachers at Lakeville South High School requesting that the school board ban Confederate flags on student cars. A pupil parked in the student lot with a flag on his car. He was approached by the administration and since has not parked it there, saying he wasn't a racist. Seems to me the problem was solved, even though it shouldn't have been a problem.
2. FLORIDA FLAG CONTROVERSY-- The May 8th Southern Florida Times reports that an advisory board set up to address racial issues in Homestead and Florida City was dissolved by a 7-0 vote by the Homestead City Council. The Homestead/Florida City Human Relations Board claims the reason was for their opposition to Confederate Re-enactment groups taking part in the November, 2008, Veterans Day parade. This caused a lot of problems at the time when blacks were offended.
