Hi, folks! I am sorry I will have to share this awful news. I came home and I read and watched about this attack. Hope families are well. My sincere condolences to all people who lost their beloved ones.

Unfortunately and apparently, suspect of gunning down 9 people in a historically black church in Charleston, SC, killed them last Wednesday “just because they were black”

This is the video that came out right after the shooting:

Nine people were killed on Wednesday, June 17 – six females and three males. Three people survived, including a woman who received a chilling message from the shooter: “Her life was spared, and (she was) told, I’m not going to kill you, I’m going to spare you, so you can tell them what happened,” Charleston NAACP President Dot Scott told CNN. Scott said she heard this from the victims’ family members. Also, the gunman told one of the survivors of yesterday’s attack, “You rape our women and you’re taking over our country. And you have to go.” I wonder what Huey P. Newton or Angela Davis or Nina Simone would do.
