vox: Wednesday night, a white man walked into a historically black church in Charleston, South Carol
vox:Wednesday night, a white man walked into a historically black church in Charleston, South Carolina, and shot nine parishioners. Today, a Confederate flag is flying on the grounds of the South Carolina statehouse in Columbia — as it does every day. While the flags on top of the statehouse itself are flying at half-mast, the Confederate flag (displayed at a Civil War memorial) is flying at full mast.That the Confederate flag flies high today, after what Charleston police are describing as a hate crime, is profoundly ugly. -- source link
