is calling on Mississippi lawmakers to change the state flag ... she says the Confederate symbolism sends a terrifying message, and it's time to be removed.
The country singer made her plea to the Mississippi state legislature Thursday night on social media, ahead of Friday's potential vote to change the flag, saying ..."We have to realize that this flag is a direct symbol of terror for our black brothers and sisters." A Mississippi native, Faith says it's time to change the state flag, which features an image of the Confederate battle flag. She says,"I understand many view the current flag as a symbol of heritage and Southern pride ... it is time for the world to meet the Mississippi of today and not the Mississippi of 1894," when the state legislature first voted on the current flag.
A change could be made as soon as Friday, state lawmakers who want to remove the Confederate imagery say they appear to have enough votes to make the change.Stay tuned ...
Didn’t bother her until yesterday 🤷♀️
Shut up and sing Mrs McGraw
DAMN NOT HER TOOOOOOO
Why now?
I would never live anywhere where that is a representation of a state next
Really now 😑
I actually live in Mississippi and that’s a hell no
I asked Faith Hill about this on air as a former Mississippum resident of Jacktucky and Hattiesburg... She hung up on me. She aint woke...her husband is an Indian outlaw, half what?
She's looking rough..
She’s still a thing?! 🤷🏻♂️
👀
Yes, yes, , , , but the state ready and willing?
They should replace it with this
Faith who? from 98' ?
I stand with Faith Hill 🙌💕❤
The righteous rich and their 2 cent opinions again.
I’m offended by the word/ Term Faith, I need her to change her name and I don’t mean please!
In the group formerly known as Dixie Chicks change their name to just two chicks
And that will end all the problem 🤷🏻♂️
Excellent example of self-awareness 👏 . Flags have changed before.
Good. I thought the great state of Mississippi liked winners anyways why is that loser flag still on their state flag
🤔 COVID-19 deaths amongst country building citizens, but no hygiene, no masks, no social distancing CHOP, comes out with one death due to gun violence🤔😂.
I could care a less about their decision on the flag but Faith Your very name my be offensive next.
Did she want to change it last week?
STFU!!🙄
Good for her. 👍🏻👍🏻
Ugh. Can we round up celebrities and send them to Chinese gulags ?
Why Should we also change America too.
I have Faith in Faith!
I just LOOOOOVE how racists go like 'who's she?' 'Is she still a thing?' 'Why didnt she speak before?'.... I enjoy sooo much watching them fuming LOL
queen 💙
Her music always uplifted my spirit...I will continue to support her!
who?
I want Giant to lower their COVID hiked food prices. No one cares what either of us has to say, we’re not relevant beyond our vote. Ticket sales need a boost?
I hope her fans don't start hating her for it. It's what she thinks is the right thing to do.♥️
Oh, well, if she says so....
Faith Who?!
Why don't people who hate America just move to another country? The majority of people complaining and hate America have NEVER been to another country....IF they had...they would have a whole different perspective, I say you don't like it...then leave?
Don't do it
Didn't bother her before
Since when was she relevant?
If faith hill wants the change, I guess we have to do it
Cue the rednecks spouting off on how they’ll never be a fan of Faith Hill’s again, cuz ‘Merica, in 3...2...1...
Do you have any actual NEWS TMZ? Or is propaganda your one trick pony? weekendatbidens
