Southern Heritage Not Hate

The Cause of the Confederacy and our Southern Heritage has been clouded for many years by hate groups and people who use our Confederate symbols to spread their hate. Some use the slogan Heritage not Hate to gain the trust of the crowd and spread their message, others who are true defenders of Southern Heritage and the honor of our Confederate ancestors are there for just that reason, to teach the truth as we have been taught and not allow the lies that are being taught to our children when it comes to our school systems version of the Confederacy.

I use the statement Southern Heritage not Hate on my site not to apologize for my Heritage, but to show where I am going with it, my goal is to promote our Great Confederate Heritage, to teach and learn the truth behind the Cause of the Confederacy, and do this with respect and pride without the hate aspect thrown in. If we try to preserve our Southern Heritage and ignore the hate issue we always have thrown in our face, in my mind we will never know where we are going much less where we came from. In my opinion we can use Southern Heritage not Hate with no apologies because we are not "those people" who portray our Heritage in a negative manner.

I don't think we need to step back to the time frame or mindset of the era by living in the past but we do need to take the traits passed down to us and use what we have learned to move forward into the future. We can't stand by and allow anyone to degrade or try to erase our Confederate Heritage including the ones flying our Great Battle Flag in dishonor and hate because they do us more harm than good no matter what they say, and we can't allow our Confederate ancestors to be judged on today’s values as they are not living in our time frame. Too many of our Noble Forefathers stood up for the Cause of the Confederacy for it to have been unjust.
