    One woman's Confederate flag stoked divisions in her South Carolina neighborhood. But then the flag came down — and the neighbors came together — in ways no one expected https://cbsn.ws/2CDddLG pic.twitter.com/koB0lFLrFO

        She didn't "evolve." It took her coming close to death for her to see that the death & pain of others, caused by her ancestors for that flag, actually matters. My guess is that she had her heart attack, looked around & no kkk members were there. Just her 👨🏾 neighbors.

        The heart attack was the impetus, I agree.

        I’m glad that she seen something from both sides but we must do a better job teaching history in schools, and coming to grips with the not so shining moments from this country’s pasts, so these things are less propagated

        My class is learning what it means to be an American and not staying away from the ugly parts. The look of relief on black faces and stone-faced on white means hard truths are coming out.

        Did it take her to get sick to change her feelings. I live in Florida and hate the confederate flag that flag should be burned forever. It’s a shame what she did to her neighbors. But u see how forgiving her black neighbors were

        Very good lesson for people who hold on to hatred and stubbornness to adapt to changing times!
