Thoughts About American Flag
We were taught in school that in the American Flag, the 13 stripes represent the 13 original colonies and the 50 stars represent the 50 states of the union.

13 stars, 13 strips. 13 for the 13 original colonies and 13 for…the states of the union? A little redundant, Mrs. Ross. You’re lucky we followed through with our Manifest Destiny.
