MLK Day Episode: Repealing Confederate Flag Day
Update: 2021-01-18
Description
Yep, that's right. Arkansas has a Confederate Flag Day. It's the subject of HB1203, an attempt to remove one of the remaining vestiges of a rabidly segregationist and anti-Civil Rights series of Arkansas legislatures from 1957-1959.
In this podcast, I delve into the history of the day and the political climate in which it was created, as well as talk about other instances where the Confederacy is honored in Arkansas Code.
