The New American
Echoing so many today, MSN.com ran this weekend the quite declarative headline, “The Confederate Flag: A symbol of hate for over 150 years.” Hate certainly was the motivator, too, when Anthony Hervey was run off the road and killed in 2015 in an incident related to that flag.
Except that Hervey was a Confederate flag advocate.
Oh, he was black, too.
“Arlene Barnum, a surviving passenger in the vehicle, told authorities and the media that they had been forced off the road by a carload of ‘angry young black men’ after Hervey, while wearing his Confederate kepi, stopped at a convenience store en route to his home in Oxford, Mississippi,” wrote the late Professor Walter E. Williams, who also was a black American, in 2016.
