The Mission of The Confederate Society is, first and foremost to see the Founders system of government restored through the restoration of our Dejure Confederate government. We support the Provisional Confederate government in its endeavor to accomplish this mission,(www.CSAGov.org].)
In 1991, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) enacted a resolution calling the Confederate Battle Flag "a tyrannical evil" and an "odious blight upon the universe" and dedicating its resources to the eradication of the flag's image from all public spaces. A swell of opposition arose against this resolution and in 1992, The Confederate Society of America (CSA) was established as the first of many organizations in what is now commonly referred to as the "neo-Confederate" movement.
CSA's initial goals were focused primarily on the preservation of Confederate history and the protection and restoration of its remaining symbols, including flags, monuments, memorials and cemeteries. Over the intervening years these goals have been modified and expanded as heritage attacks have degenerated into an all-out assault on Southern civilization. What was principally the ojectives of postwar "Reconstruction" has again become the rallying cry of those seeking to promote Northern progressivism over Southern traditionalism, thereby transforming (or "Yankeefying") Dixie into what is now coined as the "New South."
Although effective methodologies to oppose and defeat these attempts at breaking the back of the Bible Belt have yet to be established, it is clear that CSA and other related organizations must move toward two principle objectives: the restoration of Old South cultural values and the reclamation of state sovereignty from which a new Confederacy might emerge.
When we speak of Old South cultural values, we do not imply a return to the social caste structure of the antebellum South nor do we suggest such a transformation to be in the realm of the feasible. No, what we seek to promote and reclaim are her institutional roots; the inner self-reliance of its people, their celtic devotion to kith and kin, and most importantly, biblical supremacy, and salvation through the gift of grace in Christ Jesus. For it is these principles that nourished the rise of Southern sectionalism and which might once again restore our Confederate States as a shining example in the community of nations.
Ah, but the question of secession and the perception of many that it is inseparable from "rebellion" and "treason." Thus is it realistic to support the re-segmenting of the nation? Or should we join with the many "conservative" groups seeking to reform the government in accordance with the founding principles of the 1787 Constitution for the United States? And if we were to choose the latter, is it truly feasible to expect a government so inherently corrupt to be capable of reform?
