No, it is not illegal to display a Confederate flag. It is a form of protected speech under the First Amendment.
However, if the purpose of the flag is to instill rebellion, initiate racial hatred or violence, or to oppress a minority, that is an actionable offense. That is why the flag can be banned from schools, police uniforms, etc.
