    Today against Florida,it was Coach Nutt's biggest win here so far. I remember before my family, coach Nutt's family,+the other Arkansas/Ole Miss staff moved here, Coach Nutt's biggest game before he left was against LSU and we won in Death Valley. I was thinking how this game felt a little like the LSU game. How I believe that with the help with the coaches, fans, and players, we can turn this football team around and make them into champions. Mississippi.

    God bless the South and the great men and women SHE propagates....they will never have our culture, they will never have our pride, they will never feel the same brotherhood as we do in....Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. May they ALL RISE AGAIN one day and take back what is rightfully ours.

    Extend both heart and hand
    And welcome her a sister
    Of our Confederate band
    Tho surrounded by oppression
    No one dare deter
    Her adding to our Bonnie Blue Flag

    I would rate, but I can't seem to get it to finish loading. Though I am a former member of the Pride of the South band. When I played this song for the first time in front of a crowd, the feeling was beyond anything that I had ever known. The reaction from the crowd and just the pride to be a part of it was amazing.

    Last time I heard the U of Alabama band play Dixie was in 1970. You won't EVER hear them play it again. Can you imagine the media firestorm? If there is a Southern band still playing, except as a period piece, I'll bet it's not a game show on TV! (Not that TV EVER shows the band!)

  • @Islesfan4eva

    On May 1, 1863, the second official Confederate flag was introduced, and this one contained 13 stars. This represented the 11 states that had officially seceded (including Virginia, Arkansas, Tennessee and North Carolina) and the two other states (Kentucky and Missouri) that were unsuccessful in their efforts to secede.

    @TheEcu27 the legend of the "tar heel" supposedly came from Jefferson Davis, who hearing reports of some very outmanned North Carolinians driving back a federal attack said "It's as if they dipped their heels in tar and were determind to stick to that ground to the very last" And that is supposedly how the legend of the "Tar Heel" started

    Yea Im from VA and I may go to Ole Miss. Like I have said on other videos, I have no problem with playing Dixie and all that good stuff. I find nothing wrong with playing the song. However yelling the south will rise again at the end of it will eventually get the song banned. Why push our luck? Lets be happy that we can still play Dixie.

    The War for Southern Independence was caused by many factors but the primary cause was the thirst for money and power by Lincoln and his Northern Industrialist supporters.
    In 1860, Southern tariffs accounted for approximately 80% of the Federal governments revenue. It was to insure this flow of money from the South that Lincoln sacrificed the lives of over 700,000 Americans.

    @Islesfan4eva You really need to research the Confederacy. The following states were reconized in the south North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas, Texas, Kentucky, Missouri, Louisiana. hence why there was thirteen stars. It wasnt for the thirteen colonies. november 28th 1861 is when missouri was amitted into the confederatcy. which was the 12th state. I know cause i live in the south and i am a reenactor.

      @NuisanceMan Před 3 lety

      Kentucky and Missouri had two governments for a while, one supporting the North, one the South. Missouri particularly was the Wild West of the early Civil War. Both were firmly controlled by the Union within the first year of the war, though. Thereafter, exiles elected their representatives to the Confederate Congress, which meant they were controlled by Jefferson Davis and rubber-stamped whatever he wanted.

    As a current student of the Univesity and as an avid Ole Miss football fan, I can assure you that you will rarely see the confederate flag waved around at the games...and also, you may want to check your spelling of "confederate" especially if you are trying to make about something of this nature...

  • @DaMastaMynd
    @DaMastaMynd Před 14 lety

    I don't argue with you, but ewest121 saying that "none of it has anything to do with slavery" sounds a lot like disregarding the origins to me. It might just be my interpretation, though.
    The confederate flag I have considerably less qualm with, though. That is a distinctly Southern cultural element.
    I'm just saying. It's part of the history. You can't deny the bad parts just to be proud of the good parts.

    Adding to the previous post here since you have little space to do say something.Too many people worry way too much about their feelings about the past which many of us now were never a part of when it comes to slavery, our ancestors were.We have to remember to just love the music for the music.If all we do is keep arguing that this or that is racist, it simply leads to more arguments of the same. In the past, music was written to tell someone's story or their emotions so we would not forget.

  • @csason
    @csason Před 16 lety

    Great video..people who don't understand our heritage have personal issues. The Confederacy was never about racism or slavery, anymore than
    Lincoln lawyering back slaves to their owners was when he did that. Google H.K. Edgerton before you spout off about racism.

  • @TheMadSyrupMaker
    @TheMadSyrupMaker Před 15 lety

    "Dixie" was written by an Black man, and one of the most intriguing melodies ever written, it's living history. To stop playing it would be as sad as not playing Music by the German masters. Art must not suffer because it was attached to someone's cause, we are bigger and better than that. A piece of art or melody never pulled a trigger or uttered a racial slur, those come from the mouths and minds of men. Let Dixie play, Bravo to the Ole Miss Band, its wonderful.

  • @DaMastaMynd

    Except, you know, the fact that the song is sung by a recently freed slave who misses life back on the plantation where he was born.
    The fact that it was sung by a slave means it has nothing to do with slavery, right? Or is it the part where it's from a minstrel show, which were particularly known for their extremely racist depictions of blacks? Is *that* the part that has nothing to do with slavery?
    More power to Ole Miss fans, but it's really ignorant to disregard the origins of these songs.

    The political correctness of not using the confederate flag/dixie/rebel just gets two big fingers from me. They symbolize the South, perhaps when they were the official symbols the South had some questionable policies, but we dont anymore, and the flag and song do not stand for anything but the pride of the southern states and everyone in them. If you are still offended after understanding this than by God, get the fuck over it!
