Yup, Arkansas, a member of the Confederacy, still has the 13 stars on the state flag although we don't use the Rebel battle flag (the stars and bars)like Mississippi (and tell me again how they get Back athletes to play there???) Actually I live in NW Arkansas which borders Missouri and Oklahoma and my home is on the Ark-Okla line so we are more "southwest" than "pure south" like eastern and southern Arkansas with their deltas and bordering on Louisiana and Mississippi. We are more progressive and our accent is a little less of the southern drawl.
