1962 South Carolina flag removal urged by former leaders
A group of former lawmakers and governors urges current legislators to take down the Confederate flag from the Statehouse. They say it should have been removed in 1966 after the Civil War centennial. The NAACP threatens a tourism boycott if the flag stays, while supporters defend its Confederate heritage. Governors West and McNair reflect on past omitting removal amid other 1960s issues. The gathering occurred under banners in the House chamber as flag debates resume.
