I am still trying to process the experience. The presence of Confederate flags has definitely gone down in recent years. I suspect that is a post-9/11 phenomenon, when American flag decals replaced rebel flags. However, I did see one “Remember 9/11” sticker that incorporated the rebel flag. That was just too weird. I also saw two NAAWP (National Association for the Advancement of White People) bumper stickers. The public pronouncement of racist sentiment still surprises me and I’m never quite sure how to respond to a racist bumper sticker (punch the car?).</p> <p><a href="http://www.punkplanet.com/kpunk/blog/traveling_home_to_the_racist_christian_heartland">read more</a></p> http://www.punkplanet.com/kpunk/blog/traveling_home_to_the_racist_christian_heartland#comment fascism home travel Wed, 26 Sep 2007 10:12:53 -0400 KPunk 3096 at http://www.punkplanet.com
