A Eulogy for the Confederate Flag - poem by Princess HD

A poem written for the 13 Flag Funeral Project, organized by John Sims. From the press release: "To mark the 150th anniversary of the end of Civil War, artist John Sims organized The Confederate Flag: 13 Flag Funerals, a funeral/burial group performance in all of the 13 states connected to the 13 stars in the Confederate flag, on Memorial Day, May 25, 2015. These events were intended to create a space of ceremonial reflection on the complex desire for the death and burial — and perhaps the burning — of the Confederate flag as a symbol of terror, treason, and supremacy, as well as a message that history is rewriteable, that visual terrorism is sustainable, and that Black Lives Don’t Matter."
