    The quotation that reflects the perspective of most Georgia legislators in 1956 regarding the Georgia state flag is the last one in the list: "Georgia's flag should be a symbol of our resistance to federal integration laws."

    The state flag used from 1956 to 2001 consisted of the Confederate War Flag, which a minority considered offensive due to its use by the Confederate States of America and several white supremacist groups. African Americans in particular consider it offensive, since the symbol was being used in 1956, during the height of the struggle for non-segregation. Even in 1956, support for the flag was not unanimous, with the United Daughters of the Confederacy opposing the prophetic statement that the change would "cause friction."
