That's a confederate flag. I am not defending it or insulting it, but, it has the name of the state across the middle of it.
The history of the flag is very different as well. It was designed by a member of the D.A.R. for the launch of the USS Alabama.
It is up to people in Arkansas to decide about their state flag. But, this is an interesting example of the power politics of symbols in any form.
Now, Arkansas has a controversy, I guess. Hillary Clinton has made her position regarding hate and civil rights very clear all her life. Power play over.
