I'm with you on that too. Historical context matters much less than contemporary context. For example; a fig was once a cigarette. Words and symbols change meanings. The historical meaning of Ole Miss has been replaced by its current meaning, which is a nickname for the University of Mississippi.
The historical context of the confederate battle flag is not a negative connotation. However it is now equivalent to the swastika as a symbol of "White Power" throughout the world.

What is the "historical meaning" of "ole miss" and please don't tell me wikipidea or someone making shite up. It was the nickname for the yearbook back in the day. show me some real historical data showing that it means the plantation owners wife. Nothing more, nothing less. The majority of people starting shite have an agenda outside of OM.
