American People Recognizing Ignorance and Determined to Elevate. Red represents the centuries of physical and mental persecution of...Black people (black stripes) in order to establish and maintain the economy of the thirteen colonies (13 stripes) which, in turn, served as the foundation for the... fifty states (50 red stars) that still benefit both directly and indirectly from that persecution... Blue is for the justice (moral, economic, educational, and political reconciliation) due the American citizens of African descent. This symbol flies for the collective healing of the American people from the effects of the Trans-Atlantic slavetrade and its aftermath... racism.
