    The spin-off

    Despite its association with white supremacism, the Patriot Party used the Confederate flag as a symbol. In addition to easy access at military surplus stores, the flag was used, according to Amy Sonnie and James Tracy, “as a symbol of southern poor people’s revolt against the owning class.” Buttons with the slogan “Resurrect John Brown” - a reference to the avowed abolitionist - were also commonly used. Pamphlets contained slogans such as “The South will rise again, only this time with the North and all the oppressed people of the world.”

    Wild lol

    In 1982 the civil rights activist Jesse Jackson adopted the name of “Rainbow Coalition” for organizing multi-ethic groups to support and vote for liberal (generally Democratic) candidates for public office, in order to strengthen minority voices by acting in collaboration.

    Notice how the liberals who make no material difference get to become famous and live healthy while the poor and disadvantage who still serve and inspire their communities are killed and slandered.
