The current flag looks like this, which obviously needs changing:
There is a commission tasked with proposing a new design. A news article about it is available here: https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/minnesota-house-bill-moves-forward-commission-to-redesign-state-flag-and-seal/
The top proposal, called "The North Star Flag", seems to be a popular favorite.
I gathered these proposals from these two sites: https://newmnflag.org/designs https://vexillology.fandom.com/wiki/Minnesota
Visual aesthetics aside, in the Seal of Minnesota (the busy bit in the center, which has official uses besides the flag), the native on horseback is riding off into the sunset (westward, the 1983 edit notwithstanding) in the most gerenous interpretation or being driven off by the settler in a less charitable one (see rifle in the foreground). Regardless, the message is one of displacement of the native peoples by the mostly European-heritage settlers for the sake of "civilization". It's not something we should display proudly as an embodiment of our state's core values, and for that reason has been contentious for years.
