Despite a plea from Ole Miss #CFB coach Tommy Tuberville not to do so, students brought Confederate flags into Vaught-Hemingway Stadium for the Ole Miss vs. Vanderbilt football game.

The state of Mississippi is a far different place when it comes to race relations than the rest of the country thinks. I believe that of Oxford, Starkville, pretty much everywhere in Mississippi. The perception of our state by some is very outdated.

@TruthBurns26 @MNT_Condition @byjoelanderson Genuine question: what are they supposed to do about the cemetary
English
@MNT_Condition @byjoelanderson 1. The name Ole Miss
2. The nickname Rebels
3. The fight song Forward Rebels
4. The on-campus confederate cemetery and statues that still exist (just not prominently located)
5. The efforts to keep Colonel Reb alive
6. The “old south” aesthetic found throughout the entire campus
English
lol what an embarrassment

Kudo’s to @finebaum getting the SCRIBE 📜 that penned the @VanityFair piece on @Lane_Kiffin and unbelievably @chrissmithnymag said Lane had trepidation after speaking to the issue of “race”and asked to speak to it again to clear the air realizing it could hurt @OleMiss and then as he addressed it again he said essentially the same thing. We’ve spent a lot of time discussing dangerous rhetoric politically in🇺🇸and you’d think Lane would have gotten the memo. I’m on record that I’ve always liked Lane. This? However has ZERO defense and absolutely demands a public apology from him and the sooner the better. A leader of men has to know his words matter.🤦♂️

@RepDWStweets @mcinthedc As someone who has been given access to pieces of the new material: that is not true. At all.
English
DeSantis is whitewashing slavery and erasing Black history (again). His new 'US history' course, written by a right-wing hack, doesn't mention racism once in 214 pages.
Our students shouldn't be denied a chance to learn what Black Americans fought to overcome.
South Florida Sun Sentinel@SunSentinel
Florida announced its competitor to the Advanced Placement U.S. History course taken by thousands of the state’s students each year. But some historians are critical of the course’s “one-sided” views. sun-sentinel.com/2026/05/09/flo…

A fun fact about John Brown is how many primary sources were written by his ideological enemies disputing the propaganda that he was a deranged lunatic because they talked to him and universally found him calm and reasonable
Jacobin@jacobin
Radical abolitionist John Brown was born on this day in 1800. “I acknowledge no master in human form.”

@DukeHerndon Move here, tell everyone that they’re backwards and the food sucks, then be upset no one likes them
English
People from up North will move to the South (now the most populous region of the country), say this shit in mixed company and cackle like it’s charming or funny. Then complain we’re “unfriendly”
Conspiratorial Templates@mynamehear
The South is amazing. Imagine making absolutely zero progress in basically any area for 160 years. That's almost a talent.

@breakfastguy32 Being a slave vs a free person who committed lots of crimes against innocents is a big difference
English
@FormerHighHeat Wanting to destroy slavery is perfectly understandable
English
@VanityFair Damn. Did yall do any research on the name behind LSU’s mascot?
English
In explaining his decision to leave Ole Miss for LSU, Lane Kiffin seems willing to invoke Ole Miss's struggle to distance itself from symbols like the Confederate flag, Colonel Rebel, and the nickname "Ole Miss" itself.
When he was coaching there, Kiffin says, top recruits would tell him, “‘Hey, coach, we really like you. But my grandparents aren’t letting me move to Oxford, Mississippi.’ That doesn’t come up when you say Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Parents were sitting here this weekend saying the campus’s diversity feels so great: ‘It feels like there’s no segregation’” vanityfair.com/news/story/lan…

I wrote about Caitlin Clark, who only ever had to be a little bit cool, and by walking with Morgan Wallen, reminding everybody that she is kind of uncool and one of them: jaysonbuford.substack.com/p/all-caitlin-…
English
@breakfastguy32 Nat Turner was an escaped slave while Brown was a free white man who killed innocents.
Turner killed innocents as well, but his is much more understandable
English
@FormerHighHeat Was Nat Turner a t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-terrorist?
English
The Substack is setup! First post is just an intro and some procedural stuff, but if you're interested? Check the reply.
English
@breakfastguy32 - Forces of the state fighting to preserve the union are different than a group of terrorists murdering innocent people
- Pretty much every country in the world has market characteristics, yea
English
@FormerHighHeat - what happened in 1861? lol
- it doesn't exist
English
Braves Fam which Braves prospect did you most think was gonna be a star and it just didn’t work out?
English
@AustinKonenski This performance put him at #1 for me. The field has never had this many good RC racers and he continues to dust them all. Incredible
English
Shane van Gisbergen is the best road course driver in NASCAR history.
We don’t have to wait for Van Gisbergen to pass Jeff Gordon in wins to make that official.
Enjoy these performances by SVG because we are witnessing greatness.

@elliottfilms New Chevy body + loss of guys like McSwain clearly hurt the 24. Obv they wrecked but this is the worst the team has looked since 2021
English
worst hms effort since ? like i’m sure they’ve all had bad finishes not too long ago but being that far off the pace and the one that wasn’t awful gets taken out finishing the worst
Hendrick Motorsports@TeamHendrick
Final from Watkins Glen.
English
Olson has 14 homers through 41 games. The most homers by a Braves player through the first 41 games of a season is 16: Ozzie Virgil (1987), Hank Aaron (1970) and Wally Berger (1930).
English
@breakfastguy32 - Massacres and killing of innocents is bad, yes. Overthrowing slavery is good. It wasn’t going to happen through the means Brown used, which only turned many against abolition
- Marker style economics exist. I have no clue what your stances are but would guess you aren’t a fan
English
@FormerHighHeat - so overthrowing slavery was a bad goal?
- there's no such thing as a "free market capitalist" lol
