Monday marks four years since 12 members of the historically black
Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South
Carolina, welcomed a young white man to join their bible study
group. When their eyes shut for a closing prayer, he pulled out a
Glock pistol and fired 77 rounds, killing nine people. In the days
and weeks that followed, the nation learned about the lives of the
people killed in the racially motivated massacre. Families of some
victims told the shooter they forgave him. Amid an outpouring of
support for survivors, South Carolina legislators debated and voted
to remove the Confederate flag from the South Carolina State House.
