The Black Lives Matter Utah Chapter (BLM-UC) claimed in a Facebook post that the American Flag has now been designated as a “symbol of hate”. “When we Black Americans see this flag we know the person flying it is not safe to be around. When we see this flag we know the person flying it is a racist. When we see this flag we know that the person flying it lives in a different America than we do. When we see this flag, we question your intelligence. We know to avoid you. It is a symbol of hatred.”
