Charleston Shooting: This Story is Far From Over
This past Wednesday, nine members of the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, SC, were shot and killed in a hate crime. “What I want to do today is share their names and invite us all to sit with the one indisputable fact here” reflects Rabbi Brad Hirschfield, president of Clal and co-founder and executive editor of TheWisdomDaily.com, “each of these people was an entire world that has been extinguished and there really is nothing to say except to sit with the pain of the enormous loss.”
