Approximately  the article is factually incorrect etc on an don in the article are factually inaccurate statements about the confederate flag esp as underlying all those statements are a fundamental and flawed understanding entirely of slavery in the US South eg   of white families in the US South never ever owned any slaves ever so imputing slavery as the basis for fighting in the Civil war and so too the battle flag the confederate flag has that fundamental flawed distorted view  Add to that that northerners were almost   the ship owners and ship captains that brought all slaves over to the US South  and add to that  that black kings chiefs were the ones who sold into slavery all the slaves that were in the US South and so on and on the story is one of fundamental distortion  And of the  of whites in South who owned slaves they have all been dead  years further add to the fact that for   of white Southerners the flag has always represented Valor in battle of the  approximately white southerners who died in the war Add to that the war began due to invasion by North and the   felt view of white southerners that states rights then was the main issue and to a very small view  slavery way below that esp as those   of confederate soldiers and their families did not own and had never owned slaves TO distort and warp all this factual history into black mania about the battle esp of valor being a rascist symbol further massively distorted eg by us media as CNN is simply put mass HYSTERIA with no  almost no foundation in fact   please add all this to revise the bottom  of the article which has those endless wrong factual distortions Kareen Abdulla Selassie Imp of Ethiopia Sr
