The current flag looks like this, which obviously needs changing: SoB Minnesota flag

There is a commission tasked with proposing a new design. A news article about it is available here: https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/minnesota-house-bill-moves-forward-commission-to-redesign-state-flag-and-seal/

The top proposal, called “The North Star Flag”, seems to be a popular favorite.

I gathered these proposals from these two sites: https://newmnflag.org/designs https://vexillology.fandom.com/wiki/Minnesota

        Ha! Sadly CGP grey loves his teslas and cars. His video about how self driving cars are the future shows a dystopian idea where pedestrians or cyclists have no space on the roads at all. (And he doesn’t even consider trains or other public transit)
