There has been a growing clamor for the flag — branded “a reminder of systemic oppression and racist subjugation” by President Barack Obama on Friday — to be removed from the grounds of the state house in Columbia. Once flown by the rebel army of the slave-owning South, the confederate flag is seen by some as a symbol of regional heritage, but by many more as an ugly reminder of racism’s cruel legacy.
