Free State of Jones

video    Official Trailer    STXfilms    9 janv. 2016

 

Written and directed by four-time Oscar nominee Gary Ross

(THE HUNGER GAMES, SEABISCUIT, PLEASANTVILLE),

and starring Oscar winner Matthew McConaughey.

 

FREE STATE OF JONES

is an epic action-drama set during the Civil War,

and tells the story of defiant Southern farmer, Newt Knight,

and his extraordinary armed rebellion

against the Confederacy.

 

Banding together with other small farmers and local slaves,

Knight launched an uprising that led Jones County,

Mississippi to secede from the Confederacy,

creating a Free State of Jones.

Knight continued his struggle into Reconstruction,

distinguishing him as a compelling,

if controversial, figure of defiance long beyond the War.

upside-down US flag / inverted flag >

the “Appeal to Heaven” flag

(...) originates from the Revolutionary war

nd has in recent years become

a symbol of far-right Christian extremism,

samuel-alito-flag

 

 

 

The inverted flag is a symbol

that has become associated with Trump’s

false claims that Joe Biden stole the election.

 

Used by some Trump supporters

during the January 6 Capitol riot,

the upside-down flag was seen

outside Alito’s home on 17 January 2021

– 10 days after the riot in DC

nd three days before Biden’s inauguration,

according to a report in the New York Times

on Friday.
