[FRIAM] " A Flag of Treason"

[Russ Abbott]

I think that it's a good thing to point out that the Nazi flag and the
confederate flag both represent evil. Might as well put it straight.

Here's a speech <https://youtu.be/WQ29Uwz5yPU>by Mitch Landrieu, then Mayor
of New Orleans, on the occasion, three years ago, of removing statues of
Confederate "heroes" from New Orleans' parks. He makes the case that the
confederate enterprise was built on evil premises, namely slavery, and that
it's a good thing it was defeated.
