Rally to Keep Confederate Emblem
A pro-Confederate flag rally was held outside the Mississippi capitol this morning.
Dozens attended the High Noon Rally which was hosted by organizers from the Sons of Confederate Veterans and the Dixie Alliance. Supporters say the flag represents their heritage and state pride and urged lawmakers to keep the emblem.
After many cities and schools began removing the flag from buildings last year, state lawmakers proposed to change the state flag in Initiative 58.
