Like many flags and historical symbols, the Appeal to Heaven flag has multiple meanings and has been used in differing capacities.
What is ‘An Appeal to Heaven?’The Appeal to Heaven flag, or “Pine Tree” flag, features a green pine tree on a white field, with the words “An Appeal to Heaven” in black text above it.
The pine tree retained this meaning of resistance, and has appeared on some state flags and seals.
However, the polarizing recent history of the Appeal to Heaven flag is starting to become known.
This week, the city of San Francisco made the decision to remove an “Appeal to Heaven” flag that flew alongside several other flags over City Hall.
