Flag of Oklahoma
Adopted March 2, 1925, modified in 2006
A contest, sponsored by the Daughters of the American Revolution, was held in 1924 to replace the flag (used from 1911 to 1925), as red flags were closely associated with the red flag of communism. The winning entry by Louise Fluke, of Shawnee, Oklahoma, which was adopted as the state flag on April 2, 1925, resembled the current flag without the word Oklahoma on it.
