Bismarck Schools Kick Confederate Imagery To The Curb.
KFYR TV has the story of a Bismarck student that came to the January 25th meeting of the Bismarck School Board and told the tale of a fellow student who had objected to some clothing worn by another student that displayed confederate imagery. It's described in the story as a confederate hoodie. The story went on to explain how confederate hoodie girl's group of friends confronted the objecting student the next day. Making her feel unsafe at school. What I'm picturing the scene looked like...

North Dakota's on the far north side of the Mason/Dixon line so I'm not sure we can assume it's a group of kids feeling that student had upset their southern pride. The Charlie Daniels Band has a song titled The South's Gonna Do It (Again). The song's lyrics aren't about Southern folks pulling up a chair to watch Atlanta burn (again). It's a song about the incredible high quality musicians throughout the region. So just because something or someone is Southern, doesn't mean they have to be associated with the confederacy during the Civil War.
