The correct answer is B: Including the Confederate battle flag within the new state flag.
In 1956, Georgia's Assembly approved adding the Confederate battle emblem to the state flag as a response to the 1954 Supreme Court ruling that called for an end to segregation in public schools. This was a controversial measure because it was seen as a symbol of racial segregation and oppression rather than a representation of heritage or history.
