But the Rebel flag has a complex, racially charged history moreover, it has been co-opted by several racially motivated hate groups in the US, further tainting its symbolism. The celebrate-Southern-culture interpretation of the flag is a valid one. (ItвЂ™s much harder to imagine how a major American network agreed to the controversial symbolвЂ™s appearance in the series.) ItвЂ™s easy to see why the Dutch have missed that facet of the flagвЂ™s history.

Bo and Luke Duke are friendly and well-mannered, and the show doesnвЂ™t address racism.

The flag was popularized here by the television series The Dukes of Hazzard, in which two Southern cousins thwart the nefarious schemes of the local bad guy. To them-and, I suspect, to the rest of the Netherlands-it simply represents country music and cowboy boots. The Dutch men and women enjoying a country line-dancing weekend were unaware of the flagвЂ™s incendiary cultural baggage. Imagine my perplexed horror when I saw old Dixie gaily waving in an IKEA parking lot in my adopted country. But many Americans view the Confederate flag as a blatantly pro-slavery, anti-black racist symbol. There are people who consider it a neutral cultural symbol of the American South. As long as Boston stands, so shall Liberty.Д¬ultural Translation: The Confederate Flag The passion with which they say that word should strike anyone to the core. For New Englanders, the civil war and the independence war were fought (and won) by them for freedom. The yankees speak with disgust about those who waved the rebel flag and have a very clear idea in their mind about what it stands for. This view, however, doesnвЂ™t hold in New England. The Stars and Bars of the Confederate rebels IвЂ™d guess the hoisting of that rebel banner has more to do with local pride than anything - anti-government rather than anti-equality. We havenвЂ™t seen any prejudiced opinions or displays of bigotry instead weвЂ™ve seen lots of open-mindedness and understanding hell, weвЂ™ve even seen black cowboys at rodeo events getting cheered by the crowds. Somewhat surprisingly, happily, this doesnвЂ™t seem to have too much to do with race. People donвЂ™t really talk about it with outsiders, but there are common assumptions shared by the locals about who really вЂњshouldвЂ™ve won that warвЂќ. They have roads and places named after Confederate generals and even at sites run by the (national) Parks Association the civil war is presented as a war of equals, with no side really right or wrong.

The state of Mississippi staunchly bears the stars and bars on its flag and in shops and boutiques - even at attractions which had nothing to do with the civil war - still stock figurines of rebel soldiers, belt buckles of the flag, and even replica costumes of the Confederacy. The soldiers of the Confederacy were known as the rebels in that war and itвЂ™s striking how much sympathy the rebels still command down south even today. ItвЂ™s known as the cradle of the nation, and it is true that the first clamorings of revolution were heard here, but it is not the war of independence which first grabs your attention as you move up here from the deep south but another war the civil war. No more for us the swamps of Georgia and the country guitars of Nashville we have come to the historic foundations of this country: New England. Zastava Konfederacije - zastava ameriДЌkog Juga
