This Flag represents the history of this once great State. Please reinstate this Flag so citizens of Minnesota can feel proud once more. Changing this Flag without the citizens of MN was a true slap in the face and hurt to feel we had no voice.
I am an immigrant. I have lived 10 years in Minnesota, and I have a Minnesota tattoo on my wrist. I love my state and my country—they gave me safety, freedom and potential. I don’t want to see the history of this nation erased. It is time you fight back against this shame and guilt and manipulation… stand for everything that made you once a great nation. ❤️🩹
In the words of Governor Tim Walz, "If you’re trying to erase history, you’re on the wrong side of it." Removing the original flag, which depicts a Native American riding off into the sunset, is not just about changing a design. It's an act of erasing history and symbolism that, for many, represents a part of our state's story. As a husband and father to three Native American women, I find it particularly concerning that the new design removes this representation entirely. It feels like a step backward in acknowledging and honoring the history and people who were here long before us.
I feel like our flag was changed without consulting the residents of Minnesota. The flag does not represent out history or the people that live here. It has the likeness of a flag from another country and seems to be made for other intentions. Please restore the flag to its former form.
This is environmental racism at work. Residents surrounding the old Landover Mall site have been begging for its redevelopment for years, but this isn’t what we want nor need. We didn’t ask for this data center to be built in the middle of our community that will use inordinate amounts of potable water; be a strain on our electrical grid; increase air, water and noise pollution; decrease property values in this already depressed economy and not add any value or beautification to the area.
