Original Note:
The Confederate flag has well documented history associating its use with racist and dehumanising rhetoric. The confederate states seceded to protect the right to own slaves; most of whom were people of colour. It is currently classified as general hate symbol by the ADL. https://www.adl.org/resources/hate-symbol/confederate-flag
