The flag of Minnesota is the state flag of Minnesota. Its design features a modified version of the seal of Minnesota on a blue field. The first version of the flag was flown from 1893 until 1957, and was changed to be more easily manufacturable, and the state seal became simpler. The current flag was adopted in 1957 and the state seal on the flag was modified in 1983. The flag has been criticized as racist and white supremacist, depicting a white settler displacing a Native American without historical context provided about violence against Native peoples. As of March 24th, 2022, a new task force has been created by the Minnesota Legislature to discuss possibilities for flag modification and replacement.
