Showing the Colors; Standing for the Truth

Free Florida First had a productive and interesting day at the 2021 Newberry Watermelon Festival this past Saturday. We had 81 folks sign up for our flag raffle and will thus have the opportunity to send them additional information about our organization and encourage them to join us in the struggle for a Free, Independent, Godly, Prosperous and Traditionally Southern Florida.

Several folks expressed their appreciation to us for our presence at the festival. Others were surprised to see us there at all. At least a couple of folks indicated that they thought displaying the Confederate Flag was actually illegal. Yes, this is what we’ve come to, Compatriots.

We sold $337 worth of flags that will hopefully now go on display at the homes of the people who purchased them. We gave out literature to several hundred folks, and free handheld battleflags to scores of young people.

We are just a handful of folks. We’re not very influential, but by the Grace of God we will stand and we will encourage others.

Our Lord is not constrained by numbers, as we see in the example of Jonathan and his armour-bearer as they faced the wicked Philistines (basically old-time yankees) all alone.

1 Samuel 14: 6
“And Jonathan said to the young man that bare his armour, Come, and let us go over unto the garrison of these uncircumcised: it may be that the LORD will work for us: for there is no restraint to the LORD to save by many or by few.”

We believe it is increasingly important for us to simply stand and show our colors in this oh so politically correct day in which we live. We do this not simply for ourselves, but for the generations that are coming after us. If they are to stand for the truth and for our heritage and culture, they must be instructed in it. It is incumbent upon us to do so.

You may think that you can’t do much. That doesn’t matter. JUST DO WHAT YOU CAN! The Lord is not constrained by numbers!

Free Florida First advocates for a Free, Independent, Godly, Prosperous, and Traditionally Southern Florida.

Deo Vindice!

TRUST GOD!

STAY IN THE FIGHT!

NEVER GIVE UP!

NEVER QUIT!

Free Florida First will have a booth at the Newberry Watermelon Festival on Saturday, May 15, 2021

We had a very productive day at the festival last year. I had anticipated that there might be some controversy in light of the political atmosphere, given Newberry’s proximity to the socialist enclave of Gainesville (home of the Marxist University of Florida), but we sold more flags than we had ever sold at any previous festival, and we had nothing but positive feedback. Perhaps the Lord will be pleased to give us another peaceful and productive outing. Or BLM or Antifa or some other group of communist agitators may discover us this year. Regardless, by the Grace of God, we shall soldier on. His will be done!

The event is scheduled to be held from 9am-3:30pm at the Country Way Town Square in Newberry, Florida. Why don’t you come out and introduce yourself to us! (NOTE: Admission is free, but there is a parking fee of $5 per vehicle.)

Every year we set up booths at several area festivals. It is an opportunity to get ourselves before the public and let folks know that some of us still strive to stand in the old ways and ask for the old paths. We proudly display the banners of our fathers and encourage folks to work for a Free, Independent, Godly, Prosperous, and Traditionally Southern Florida.

Jeremiah 6:16a
Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. . . .

We believe that it is increasingly important for us to show our devotion to the principles that undergirded the Confederate States of America and to make our presence known in our local community. We strongly advocate for individual liberty and a minuscule government that is truly by the consent of the governed. Won’t you consider joining with us?

Here’s what our booth at last year’s festival looked like:

And here are some of our compatriots who manned the booth with us:

So, come out to the Watermelon Festival, visit with us, and buy some flags to help support our efforts, and then go home and fly them, to show your own commitment to liberty and truth.

Here’s a sample of the 3’ X 5’ flags we offer for sale at the festival for $10 each or three (3) for $25.

The proceeds from our sales help us to continue our work for liberty and truth.

Stand up and show your colors and FIGHT FOR DIXIE!

By the Grace of God we will continue to do so!
