    Skynard hangs a confederate flag each time they take the stage? This is evident in all shows past and present, I argue that the flag represents more than hatred towards the black race or any sort of racism at all. Am I wrong in believing this? Southern music has been influenced greatly by gospel, soul, and R and B, I do not believe this flag represents anymore than strict southern pride. This pride that is held by the hanging of this flag does not necessarily mean racism or beliefs of the old South. Tell me where I am wrong in believeing this.
