Georgia Legislature moves to flag echoing Confederate emblem
Georgia lawmakers approve a flag variant that echoes the Confederate battle emblem without the Dixieland cross pending governor Sonny Perdue's signature. If signed, voters will choose next March between the temporary flag and the current design amid protests by black lawmakers. In separate Census Bureau figures, more black families are headed by married couples and more own homes, with 47.9 percent of such households headed by married couples in 2002 and about 48 percent of blacks owning homes.
