I don't know how the South is sectioned off, never been there..place is vast and huge, but Black folks need a plan to concentrate themselves somewhere in order to gain sociopolitical mileage.
You don't want to be reliant on these primitive cacs for services..

The idea of Confederate Heritage month isn't new here in Mississippi or a number of other states

How does a state that is half black have a racist republican cac governor?
Probably one of the states with highest percentage of blacks but still probably less than 40% so even in super close races when people vote along racial lines it doesn't make a difference.

Cause they have the economic power.

Blacks are concentrated in one area so they can be starved for resources. Gerrymandering 101.
That's true to a degree but there are plenty of poor white people here as well with absolutely no economic power that are content unifying with fellow whites instead of voting for things that would benefit them or the state as a whole.

Yeah.
You can’t have two of the most prominent universities in the country(ole Miss and MSU) but can’t retain the talent?

Cause the wealthier power structure has gotten the poorer class to take pride in underachieving and treating non-Mississippians as outside influence that will destroy their way of life.

I just called back home and nobody has heard this, nor has the news reported it
That's what I'm saying. This confederate heritage month has been "a thing" for a while now and it looks like Alabama, Louisiana, Georgia, and a few other states have similar "celebrations". It's certainly not anything that is in any meaningful way impacting stuff here, particularly for black people. We honestly dgaf, and it seems backwards to be celebrating being on the losing end of something that happened almost 150 years ago. Not saying it's fake or overblown but it's probably a bigger deal for the white people here.
