The red flag with its blue X holding white stars hung over the shoulder of a White Lives Matter member who was joined by others in his group in a protest against the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
"We came out here to protest against the NAACP and their failure in speaking out against the atrocities that organizations like Black Lives Matter and other pro-black organizations have caused the attack and killing of white police officers, the burning down of cities and things of that nature," White Lives Matter member Ken Reed said.
"If they're going to be a civil rights organization and defend their people, they also need to hold their people accountable."
The protest drew much attention as people took photos of the group which held assault rifles and "White Lives Matter" signs on the Third Ward block.
Reed said the flags were being flown as a symbol of Southern heritage.
"It has nothing to do with racism on our part," Reed said. "We're proud to be Southern. It has all to do about heritage, nothing to do with hate."
