Look Away, Look Away
When the 2015 murder of nine African-American churchgoers in Charleston, South Carolina sparks a national reckoning over the meaning of the Confederate flag, battle lines are drawn in Mississippi to determine the fate of the last state flag to feature the most potent and divisive symbol of our fractured history. In Look Away, Look Away, filmmaker Patrick O'Connor introduces us to a variety of activists and depicts the five-year battle over the Mississippi state flag, illuminating how race, heritage, and long-simmering resentments over the Civil War impact our sense of who we are as Americans.
