The modern display of flags used by and associated with the Confederate States of America started in response to the civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s and continues into the present day. Their revival began with Senator Strom Thurmond’s Dixiecrats in reaction to growing public support for racial equality, alongside opposition to civil rights in 1948. A modified version of the “Southern cross” used as the battle flag of General Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia has become the most popular and is now the most widely recognized symbol of the Confederacy. Displays of flags associated with the Confederacy have long been controversial. Many Southerners associate the Confederate battle flag with pride in Southern heritage, states’ rights, historical commemoration of the American Civil War; opponents associate it with historical revisionism and glorification of the Civil War (i.e. the Lost Cause myth), racism, slavery, segregation, white supremacy attempted intimidations of African-Americans and treason.
