My (white) younger brother received a #GadsdenFlag as a gift a few years ago. I didn't know what it was in refence to so I looked it up. Most of the articles don't directly answer my question..

Is the Gadsden Flag used as a #racist symbol?

Edit to add: Yes, I can read and understand that it was created as an anti-government symbol. Many symbols have evolved over time which is the reason for this question.

Is the concensus that the symbol of it is in the eyes of the beholder?
I am white. I have white privilege. I am doing my best to stay educated so I can do my part to educate others.
