I've always hated the rebel flag. As a kid who was born in the south but raised in the north whenever I'd go visit my relatives I'd see hateful evangelicals and poorly educated people.
And it's where I learned "the other side of the tracks" was a real thing.

I remember going down south and the kids, who of course are generally cruel, would laugh and make fun of ke because I said "you guys" instead of "y'all."
I can still hear them: "you gahees!"
I figured I was just speaking proper English.

And my evangelical southern Baptist family never said "black people." It was "the coloreds" or "son" or "boy" to GROWN ASS MEN.
I'd spend time at my father's country club, which was amazing to this poor country kid from north of Chicago...
