(From Indiegogo site) Ten days after the racist terror attack in Charleston, the Confederate battle flag embraced by shooter Dylann Roof came down in South Carolina.
It wasn’t because South Carolina leaders acted – they allowed the flag to fly on the Capitol grounds even as the body of State Senator Clementa Pinckney, who was slain by Roof, lay in state at the Capitol on Wednesday.
The flag came down because one brave soul did what South Carolina leaders were not yet willing to do. A courageous woman, Bree Newsome, is now in jail, for cutting down the flag.
