What American Flag-Worship Looks Like to a New Citizen

By Rosalind C. Hughes

…for all when white supremacists were using the same symbols to profess and promote their hatred? Still today, he says, “For me, the words ring hollow.

The “Great Replacement” became more widely known after Jean Raspail published his novel Le Camp des…
