Governor Nikki Haley (R-SC) held a news conference in the South Carolina State Capitol, attended by many legislators, in which she called for the Confederate battle flag to no longer be flown from the grounds of the State Capitol. She talked about the meaning of the flag for different people and said that the while the flag was a part of their past, it could not be a part of their future. The decision came after nine people were killed the previous week at an historic black church in Charleston, allegedly by a white man who had been pictured with the flag. Governor Haley talked about the incident and the response of the people of South Carolina. close
