On the one hand, the union responses to this atrocity and to police murders have pointed to institutional racism in hiring, education, housing, etc. So for that matter have the various #blacklivesmatter groups. And when quoting all of them on facebook I've agitated for us to campaign on those institutional issues. On the other hand, the flag debate does reflect power dynamics (and several of the right-wing groups have in fact praised the murderer and even called for trashing the US flag).
