what's the meaning behind the flag of poland?
anyone wanna run that by me real quick
Basically it stretches back to the days when Lithuania was a relevant and powerful clay and united with Poland, which had it's own coat of arms of similar base colors
And progressively got simpler until it was just red and white blocks
But "officially" it's... https://www.worldatlas.com/webimage/flags/countrys/europe/poland.htm
```Red and white have long been associated with Poland and its coat of arms. On the modern flag, white is said to represent the hope for peace by all of Poland's people, while red recalls the many struggles for freedom over the centuries.```'
so red is NOT communism
gotcah
Red usually symbolizes the blood shed by your nation
Its the same for the American flag
Even the communist flags the red represents blood splilled.
"Although the color red has always had positivity attributed to it in Russian culture, in the Soviet Union flag, the red field symbolizes the blood of the workers and farmers that was spilled during their struggle for liberation in the 1917 Russian Revolution, by honoring the red flag of the Paris Commune of 1871."
"It is said that the redcolor of the Chinese flag represents the blood of the heroes who sacrificed their lives during the revolution. "
in germany the red symbolizes the carpet we roll out for the US <:kek:590371888480387073>
Res in the Italian one is for the tomato sauce on the pizza
@Holy Intersectional Inquisition Germany is shit these days, and prefers to roll that carpet for Russia these days.
Uhmmm I can't say much about the text, but the image is most definetly wrong. That doesn't look like the fashion of the mid 17th Century at all... looks like some random image of a black person from the mid to late 1800s
Are you saying it's a photoshop?
i doubt that they could just take a random picture of a black guy and then just put it next to the text
it all must be fake
William (April) Ellison tho... he was the type of owner people imagine when thinking of white slave owners.
And he was a black freed slave who's owner actually treated him really well and even educated him.
oof
Nigs gonna nog
think of the screeching if you did bring that up at black history month
I bring it up every time people bitch about slavery in the us. "If it wasnt for a black man the US might have kept their indentured servitude model instead."
i always bring up the ottomans
the barbary pirates
the fact that blacks sold slaves to whites
@Goblin_Slayer_Floki the dress is wrong. Either that or the dates privided
