Singer Macy Gray says US should ditch the Stars and Stripes because it is 'tattered, dated, divisive, and incorrect'
|
That's why the flags of two other countries emulate it.
- [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Macy Gray, 53, wrote the op-ed for MarketWatch ahead of Juneteenth, which was declared a federal holiday this week and is set to be celebrated on Saturday
- The 'I Try' singer said the flag needs to be redesigned to represent all Americans, arguing the symbolism of Old Glory was harmed during the Capitol riot
- Gray argued that the stars on the flag fail to represent Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico, which have both seen failed attempts at gaining statehood
- She went on to claim that the 'white' stripes meant to represent purity and innocence are not an accurate way to depict the country
- The five-time Grammy nominee a design for her own version of the flag that she felt would be more representative of the country, while keeping many elements
- Many people on social media were not thrilled with the take down of Old Glory
