Just looked it up. You're right. The fleur-de-lis symbol was branded on slaves. How shameful

If you want to learn black history you should have to learn it on your own; why the F would I have to learn your history? It is nothing but tears and crying, no glory, no great conquest, nothing but sad stories. I will read the book , Old Yeller if I want a sad story; at least it might be true.

Please research St. AUGUSTINE Florida. It was originally named after a Nigerian man named St. Augustin. He has truly been erased.

The fleur-de-lis simply is a general symbol of France. Like the star for USA. Or the hammer and and sickle for the old ussr.
