White supremacists waved the Confederate battle flag amid Saturday, Aug. 12, 2017 violence in Virginia, prompting critics to say Mississippi should remove the symbol from its state banner. Critics said the same thing two years ago after an avowed white supremacist killed black worshippers in South Carolina, and nothing changed. The same leaders who control Mississippi flag legislation remain in office.(AP Photo/Rogelio V. Solis, File)
