I own a quilt that my great grandparents brought with them from Germany, which is predominately decorated with hakenkreutzen. They came to the US in the early 1920s, so it was obviously not associated with Naziism. I’m certainly not going to be throwing it away, and I’ve made a point to show it to my children and explain its significance. But… I’m also not going to be posting photos of it online, or putting it on display in my home. It’s a part of my family’s history that is very easily misinterpreted today, and it’s simply not worth the potential for offense or controversy. I’ve got a Confederate flag, too, that was allegedly flown over the Arkansas state capitol during the US Civil War. It’s the “first national flag”, which I’m fairly confident most people wouldn’t even associate with the Confederacy without being told what it is. I’m still not going to be displaying it, for much the same reasons.
