The Confederate States of America lasted from 1861 to 1865. That short time period hardly represents the South. What that time period does represent is succession from the Union, insistence on the enslavement of Africans and African-Americans, and war. In fact, in represents a period of unpatriotism to the United States of America. Why would you want to be associated with that? What does that say about the Southern heritage you claim. Since African-Americans made up a large part of the South, and they don't claim that same heritage, what is it that white Southerners are celebrating on their cars, shirts, hats, and belt buckles?
