Police say they can't take the flag down, homeowner says they don't care 'what people think'

Whenever Amie Archibald-Varley sees a Confederate flag waving in the wind at a rural Hamilton home in her neighbourhood, she said she feels fear and confusion.

"I have small children ... they're racialized as well ... it's concerning because it's like 'Are my kids going to face this type of hate? Are my kids going to be called the n-word or have to experience this type of fear?'" Archibald-Varley, who is Jamaican Canadian, told CBC Hamilton.

Archibald-Varley said she and her family live minutes away from the home.

  1. Perhaps if people learned their history they'd know the war, and the flad had nothing to do with slavery. The stars and stripes however is a different story, (its all documented in both books written before the war and up until 1910, and in news papers from England), since they enabled slavery, and profited from it for hundreds of years, including almost 40 years after the War between the states had ended.
