CHARLESTON: A REFLECTION
Dylann Roof, the alleged perpetrator of the killings in Charleston in 2015 will soon very likely be convicted and sentenced. Since then, there was the Pulse nightclub shooting, many instances of police violence against unarmed black men, and reactive violence against the police themselves. Here we reprise a reflection on Charleston's tragic instance of racial hatred. If you read it, please do so with these later stories in mind as well.
We wish this reflection was not still so relevant.
