“The Georgia House of Representatives passed a bill recently that would redesign the state flag. In hopes of ending a decade-long controversy, the new scheme would eliminate the famously divisive Confederate battle flag imagery from the state flag for the first time since the mid-1950s. In its place, Georgia will return to a design based on the original Confederate national flag — the famous ‘Stars and Bars’ — that featured a blue field with three stripes of red and white. On the middle white stripe, the words ‘In God We Trust’ will be written.”
