What does the American Flag mean to me? It means freedom,respect,equal right, faith and hope. Soldiers help protect this country, they fight for us, they give up everything for us. People don’t know how important the flag is. The flag means our country’s freedom. When I look up at the flag, I see people, not just any people, the great Americans that have fought for this country.

The American flag consists of thirteen horizontal stripes, with seven red stripes alternating among six white. In the upper left corner there is a rectangular blue space that contains fifty white stars. The thirteen stripes symbolize the thirteen original colonies of the United states of America and the stars represent the fifty states of the Union. White is said to symbolize purity and innocence. Red symbolizes strength and courage, and blue symbolizes vigilance, perseverance and justice. The flag in simple words is a piece of cloth that has meaning. The flag stands for everything in our country’s past.

The American Flag is symbol of freedom to those individuals living in the United States.

Proponents believe tribal symbols display honor and respect towards the Native American people. They cheer that the inclusion of this iconography in the athletic arena serves to pay admiration and ongoing tribute to the identity of the Native American culture. They believe that rather than extinguishing Native American mascots as a symbolic reference for schools and sports teams, the choice to sensitively use such imagery should be without sanction.

Artworks featuring the American flag can have different meanings, for example, Faith Ringgold's God Bless America and Jasper Johns Flag. The painting God Bless America was inspired by the Civil Rights Movement in the 1960’s it’s an expression of the emotional and physical agony of African Americans, it’s also a comment on bigotry. It shows a woman behind bars, the bars being the red and white stripes of the American flag. The star on the woman's shoulder represents a sheriff's badge. The art is contradictory because it's both patriotic and racist. The painting Flag is more patriotic. It’s made out of an ancient Egyptian painting called encaustic which leaves lumps and smears asking viewers to consider the work of art and to ponder its meaning.

The united states flag has been a big part of history since the beginning. patriotism also played an important part in the war. Betsy Ross made the first american flag. The flag has changed quite a bit since the design of the flag. For example the number of stars.

Barbash, Use logos to really catch the logical appeal of certain people. He uses the quote, “The issue is whether, because it’s been adopted by some white supremacist groups or because it was flown during the era of slavery, it is so offensive.” to really get the logical minded people thinking. People that this appeals to associate the first American flag with hate and bigotry, because the era it was created in was a

The flag is a symbol of pride and patriotism. “The flag is not racist. It is a symbol of patriots who were willing to die to protect this country and make sure it remained as the founders intended,” (Is the confederate flag racist?, 1). This exemplifies that the flag is not a racist symbol, it is a symbol of patriotism. The Confederate flag is not a racist

The American flag not only stands for pride, freedom, and strength but the colors on the flag have a meaning behind them that all Americans should understand. In a description of the flag on a website dedicated solely to the Flag of the United States of America is states "The colors of the pales (the vertical stripes) are those used in the flag of the United States of America; White signifies purity and innocence, Red, hardiness & valour, and Blue, the color of the Chief (the broad band above the stripes) signifies vigilance, perseverance & justice" (US Flag 2005). The flag was not just thrown together to represent the country but also have a true meaning behind them. The stars and stripes on the flag have both an exact meaning but also have the meaning of

First off, let’s start with the most blatantly obvious reason this flags basically stands for slavery and racism. A quote I found to represent this fact is “For him, the flag represented slavery - the main cause of the civil war. Therefore, if we do not condone slavery any

Dread Scott’s very controversial illustration is titled What is the Proper Way to Display a Flag? What better title to stir the people’s ideas and gain their opinions on the correct way to present symbolistic fabric? a.) Many people believe that the American flag should never touch the ground, as it is a sign of disrespect. However, what many Americans don’t seem to know is there technically no rule on how one must display a flag. b.) This piece addressed, not only very important social issue, but a political one as well. As miniscule as they may seem to all the other problems society is facing, they desperately needed to be addressed for American citizens, specifically, to truly consider which values they hold dear to themselves and their

The Star - Spangled Banner was written by Francis Scott Key as he watched his fellow Americans stand strong in their darkest hour. For over twenty four hours Fort McHenry was bombarded by British Navy, but the American troops fought, and so did their families. The Americans rallied around the singular flag that stood high in the fort, and a flag that was a target for the British armada. They planned to destroy the flag to disrupt moral, but the Americans refused to let it fall. They used that singular flag as motivation, and motivation that eventually won them the battle. The flag still holds the same purpose today. To remember those who have fought, or are currently fighting in our armies. It also serves as a source of pride, motivation, and patriotism towards our country. Knowing what our flag means to our history and our country, we can’t possibly keep letting our countries source of pride be disrespected by those attempting to promote their own cause. Are nations athletes that choose to display their displeasure with our nation’s current state, and disrespect what our flag means for our country.

This compels me to raise several queries, admittedly not all of them wisely. How important is the image of the flag to the citizen? What happens to the person who had the honour of saluting only one flag in her entire life? Can she save herself from being conformist and patriot or, for that matter, parochial and communal? What future does she hold for herself and the state when saluting, often with passion, the flag she reveres? What about those who have saluted more than one flag in their lifetime? What image do they have of reality? How does it impact upon their daily lives, particularly the utopias they relish and the dystopias they fear? Answers probably are more difficult than the
