What Mississippi Colors Represent
The New Magnolia flag was approved by 73 percent of voters in a November 2020 referendum — among the most decisive state flag votes in American history — replacing a 126-year-old flag that incorporated the Confederate battle emblem; gold honors both Mississippi's cultural arts heritage and the state's Indigenous peoples through the distinctive gold star at the top of the flag's central design
