I Don’t Care If You Hide From History Just Don’t Hide History From Us

The idea was best offered in consideration by Shelby Foote in discussing the various iterations of the Confederate battle flag.

“I don’t object to any individual hiding from history, but I do object to their hiding history from me. And that’s what seems to me to be going on here. There are a lot of terrible things that happened in American history, but we don’t wipe ’em out of the history books; we don’t destroy their symbols; we don’t forget they ever happened; we don’t resent anybody bringing it up. The confederate flag has been placed in that position that’s unique with an American symbol. I’ve never known one to be so despised.”
