The North Carolina chapter of the Sons of Confederate Veterans has filed a lawsuit against the state following the recent decision to stop issuing and renewing specialty license plates depicting the Confederate flag.
The new policy took effect at the start of this year with the North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles determining that license plates bearing the Confederate flag have the potential to offend those who view them, as the flag is seen by many as a symbol for the legacy of slavery and racial segregation.
“We have therefore concluded that display of the Confederate battle flag is inappropriate for display on specialty license plates, which remain property of the state,” the agency said at the time.
The Confederate flag license plates were a specialty plate for the North Carolina Division of Sons of Confederate Veterans, who claim the rule is discriminatory against the group and illegal.
