Rep. Ed Blackmon, D-Canton, points to a Mississippi state flag on an upper floor of the Capitol and calls for it to be brought down and replaced, Thursday, June 25, 2020, during a news conference with a large number of Black pastors at the Capitol in Jackson, Miss. The current flag has in the canton portion of the banner the design of the Civil War-era Confederate battle flag, that has been the center of a long-simmering debate about its removal or replacement.
