The above will be the live channel. 

I am going to burn. 

11. Confederate Battle flag.

22. 2^nd National Confederate flag, “Stainless” designed around the idea of white supremacy. The white is stainless.

33.   United Daughters of the Confederacy North Carolina Division Ku Klux Klan flag.

44. Bonnie Blue flag and some other lesser known flags that Fraternities fly so they can fly a Confederate flag and people don’t know about it.

55. LSU Confederate flag and how they blocked an African American student’s campaign against it.

66.  The Citadel flag which is an exact copy of the Citadel’s Confederate flag of 1861. This university has dealings with the United Daughters of the Confederacy.

It is getting global attention.

John Sims asks me to ask H.K. Edgerton a question.

John Sims asked me to ask H.K. Edgerton what he thought of John Sim's Memorial Day (2015) art project in which Confederate flags were burned in former Confederate states.

I promised that I would ask the question if I got a chance to ask H.K. Edgerton at the 2015 Sons of Confederate Veteran (SCV) Reunion in Richmond, Virginia when I am down there.

This will be additional question to the set of questions I am going to ask H.K. Edgerton to ask.

I look forward to filming H.K. Edgerton's answer if I can get him to answer.
