Friend —
Today, Secretary of Defense Mark Esper announced that the Confederate flag will be banned from military bases. That’s progress — and it’s because people like us stepped up and kept this issue on in the spotlight, demanding accountability from our leaders.
But it’s not enough. Banning the Confederate flag is an empty gesture if we still allow our military bases to bear the names of Confederate generals — traitors to our country who turned their back on America in pursuit of racism and oppression of Black people.
Join our renewed call for removing the names of Confederate traitors from military bases across the country by adding your name to our petition today. Banning the Confederate flag is progress, but by Esper’s own logic these bases named after Confederate traitors also have to go.
SIGN THE PETITION
This isn't hard. If the Confederate flag is a divisive symbol, then so are the names of the racist traitors who killed Americans to preserve slavery and who serve no purpose today but to encourage white supremacists and perpetuate racism.
Thanks for helping us stay on this issue. We’ve made a lot of progress with your help. Let’s keep it up.
