They may have started a movement.
The patriotic University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill students who defended an American flag in the face of Palestinian protesters will soon have a day all their own.
Welcome to Flagstock 2024, the Sept. 2 concert in Chapel Hill, N.C. honoring the fraternity brothers who defied a far-Left attempt to replace the U.S. flag with the Palestinian model on April 30. Expected to perform are Five for Fighting, Aaron Lewis, Big & Rich, Lee Greenwood, Cowboy Troy and Angie Aparo.
Flagstock 2024 will be live-streamed so people across the country can honor the “boat-shoed broleteriat” who stood up for Old Glory.

“Well, we made a promise to the boys in North Carolina to give them a free concert, and now we’re ready to throw down on Labor Day to salute these patriots of UNC! These guys have become a symbol of hope for a generation and have so much potential to lead. We plan to kick the school year off right in Chapel Hill, so be prepared to have a rockin’ good time as we celebrate our freedom!” John Rich said in a press statement.
The protest in question echoed many held across the country this year in the wake of Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel. The savagery left 1,200 people dead and hundreds captured.
The latter number includes eight Americans, a fact the corporate press continues to downplay.
Pro-Palestinian activists removed an American flag on the UNC campus that day before university officials stepped in. When the crowd circled back to the flag, hoping to replace it with the Palestinian version, several UNC fraternity brothers rose to its defense.

The students endured “nearly an hour of screaming, slurring and flying objects … until it could be restored,” according to Fox News.
Images of their flag defense went viral. A GoFundMe campaign for their heroic efforts generated more than $500,000.
Now, they’ll celebrate Labor Day with an all-American concert.
The brothers in question spoke last month at the Republican National Convention. White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre, when asked if President Joe Biden would call the students or contribute to their GoFundMe page, refused to answer.
