Always Contested: The Confederate Flag in the Public Imagination Sept. 10 | 4pm | Jonas 110
Always Contested: The Confederate Flag in the Public Imagination Hosted by Dr. Adam Gaffey. What happens when a symbol changes its meaning? The public and political response to the tragedy in Charleston, S

Behind the question of whether the Confederate flag flies on state property is a larger conversation on how symbols function as resources of shared history and community, and what probable options publics hav
