In this episode of the Golden Circle podcast we discuss the flag that Robert Barnwell Rhett proposed for the Confederacy in 1862, Rhett’s vision of an independent South and the concept of the Golden Circle. We also speculate on the symbolism of Rhett’s flag and how it differed ideologically from US symbolism, pointing towards a very different world-view.
