(Harry How / Getty Images) Claiming the American flag needs to be revised to represent a nation different from the one The New York Times thinks it ought to be, the paper has offered some new ideas that focus more on racism than patriotism.
Although a look at flags from the early decades of the United States’ existence shows that the traditional American flag of white stars on a blue field with alternating red and white stripes has always been the standard, even during the years when stripes were added for new states, the Times claimed the flag’s designed “shifted frequently until the early 1900s.”
That bit of fact dispensed with, the paper offered six alternative designs.
In Andrew Kuo’s design, red white and blue make it onto the flag, but a massive yellow square takes up one-quarter of the flag as a nod to “repairing systemic racism.”
Another quarter of the flag is green to represent “taking care of our planet.”
Kuo said his design “acknowledges the emotions that informed where our country has been and the spirit of where it may go, with joy and forgiveness as possibilities. We can’t ignore how we got here, but maybe we can move toward a different, even better place.”
The design from 2×4 is a fuzzy version of the current color scheme. The designers argued that “the American flag has been made and remade, evolving from a unifying emblem into a complex and contested vocabulary of symbols.”

“In this flag, the familiar symbolism falls out of focus, giving way to something ambiguous, vague and difficult to define,” they wrote.
Designer Na Kim had no problem defining what he wanted, putting white stars on a pale gray background.“The colors of our flag are intended to stand for unity, valor and justice.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
