The city of Boston has agreed to pay $2.1 million in attorney fees and damages stemming from a 2017 case in which the city refused to allow a Christian flag to be flown at City Hall Plaza for Constitution Day.
Over the past 12 years there have been 284 flags—from LGBTQ rainbow flags, a Turkish flag with the Islamic star, to Communist China flags—raised on a public flagpole owned by the city of Boston.
