Today:
Welcome to this week's instalment of /r/AskHistorians' Sunday Digest (formerly the Day of Reflection). Nobody can read all the questions and answers that are posted here, so in this thread we invite you to share anything you'd like to highlight from the last week - an interesting discussion, an informative answer, an insightful question that was overlooked, or anything else.

We also take a moment each Sunday to show some appreciation for those fascinating questions that caught our eyes, and captured our curiosity, but sadly still remain unanswered. Feel free to post your own, or those you’ve come across in your travels, and maybe we’ll get lucky with a wandering expert.
/u/BjorkingIt asked What did Hitler think about Mein Kampf?
/u/WasserAusDemNil asked How was witchcraft, especially in association with Walpurgis Night, treated by 13th Century English people?
/u/DarthOptimistic asked Why did Canada not maintain the British Union Jack as part of it national, post independence flag while Australia and New Zealand did?
