Confederate states of America WAS the country of many people. Those people have descendants who live nowadays. These descendants carry the flag in respect to their ancestors, in respect to southern sovereignty, in respect to valor etc.
It happens to be that only white people have ancestors who made up The Confederate States of America. So NATURALLY mostly white people carry the flag.
How hard is to grasp this concept?

That does not even make sense because:
1. The "past era of Southern sovereignty" is the exactly same as current "Southern sovereignty". State Sovereignty among all the States in this nation has not legally changed. So if people are flying the flag to represent Southern sovereignty, then it is strange only white people are doing that.
2. The black people who lived in the Confederate States of America were indeed part of the makeup of that country. The CSA even had black confederate soldiers. So how can you claim that the CSA was only made up of white people? |
