https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq People often attach meaning to symbols in our society like flags & monuments. Personally, what does the American flag mean to you? Does it make you "feel" a certain way? Why do you think people have strong feelings about our flag? en-us 2022-05-02 12:09:03 UTC 2025-10-30 19:45:14 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq/wish/2166710115 I don't feel anything special towards the flag or the country but imagine some people view it as a symbol of the country's pride or something of that effect.]]> 2022-05-02 13:02:12 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq/wish/2166710115 23gtruppi https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq/wish/2166710273 The American flag doesn't really mean anything to me and I don't feel a certain way.  I think people have strong feelings about the American flag because people want to take pride in their country. ]]> 2022-05-02 13:02:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq/wish/2166710273 https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq/wish/2166710585 When I think of the American Flag the first thing that comes to my head is freedom and independence.

To me, the flag is kind of controversial because it embodies our country and what we believe in however, it also kind of always reminds me of the trouble we had in the past and are still going through today in order to make the flag what it is. Right now, it's kind of just existing and there for me at the moment. ]]> 2022-05-02 13:03:19 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq/wish/2166711411 https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq/wish/2166711546 I don't really have an opinion on the American flag, like I just see it as a symbol for the country I live in but that's about it, some people might care a lot because they care a lot about their country and take pride in the country they live in]]> 2022-05-02 13:03:25 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq/wish/2166711546 https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq/wish/2166711684 To me, the flag represents freedom in the US.

It doesn't really make me feel a certain way since I see it as a symbol of our country. People could have strong feelings about our flag because they feel a large pride in our country and the flag is a symbol of patriotism for them. ]]> 2022-05-02 13:03:33 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq/wish/2166711764 https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq/wish/2166712054 The flag is just the flag to me. I understand why the flag means so much to so many people but I never really felt that connection. Many people believes it represents freedom and the liberties we are granted in this country, and while I am grateful to have been born in this country and not another I don't really look at the flag and feel anything. ]]> 2022-05-02 13:03:45 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq/wish/2166712054 23jlesanecook https://padlet.com/ann_huber1_1/49bktwa0v08oh6lq/wish/2166712306 The American flag does not have the biggest impact one me, I know what it is supposed to represent and can respect the strong effect it has on others.
