Today is Jefferson Davis Day in Charleston South Carolina
I am sure that Confederate flags will fly in downtown Charleston, just as they did a few weeks ago when the South Carolina Secessionist Party stayed true to their promise to not protest Bree Newsome’s visit to College of Charleston. Remember Ms. Newsome? She is the lady who climbed the flag pole to bring down the Stars and Bars after the Charleston Massacre.
This is the college run by a proud son of the confederacy who celebrates his heritage by dressing up in the uniform of the racist nation and has two servants dress as his slaves. This is the city on two sides of a river with a bridge dedicated to a modern racist. Charleston is a community where the American version of a swastika flies proudly everyday, not just from the back end of some red neck’s red truck but from public buildings. Meanwhile the city celebrates Jefferson Davis Day.
