Variety

Amid a nationwide backlash against Confederate displays, the Volo Auto Museum said it won't remove the car featuring the Confederate flag. “We feel the car is part of history, and people love it. We’ve got people of all races and nationalities that remember the TV show and aren’t offended by it whatsoever. It’s a piece of history, and it’s in a museum,” said the museum's director.
