MCCOMB, Miss. (AP) — A Mississippi city with a history of racial strife is the latest local government to stop flying the state flag, which features a Confederate emblem that critics see as racist.
Three black officials in McComb voted to remove the flag from city property. A white official voted to keep it.
The flag was not originally on the agenda for Tuesday's meeting of the six-member Board of Selectmen , but was added before two white members arrived, The Enterprise-Journal reported (http://bit.ly/2t6wdtg ).
Selectman Ted Tullos, who is white, said he opposes removing what he called a piece of history. Selectman Ronnie Brock, who is black, replied: "I'm in favor of removing bad history. Everybody's history is not my history."
