Yesterday marked ten years since the tragic shooting at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, SC, where nine members lost their lives during a Bible study.
We pause to honor their memory and reflect on our ongoing call to work for justice and equity.

#10YearsAgo, a tragedy fueled by hate occurred, claiming nine lines at #MotherEmanuelAME in #CharlestonSC. #10YearsLater and still #SouthCarolina is w/o a hate crime law. Remember that when you see the hollow words of those in positions who can fix the #CharlestonLoophole. #EmanuelNine #HateWontWin

#10YearsAgo, the #EmanuelNine lives were tragically taken after welcoming a stranger into Bible study showing the most purest form of love and inclusion. May we embody their steadfast souls and continue to move toward healing, justice, racial equity, progress, and more. #SayTheirNames #CharlestonSC
10 years ago today we lost 9 amazing souls to hate. Hatred never wins. Our prayers with the families of all those lost on that tragic night. Let’s live in peace. #emanuelnine
The telos, or divine “endgame,” for racial reconciliation is not restored relationship between whites and people of color…It is the establishment of a just world, one in which racial inequities have been abolished. This means that the current practices, policies, and societal norms that disadvantage people of color or advantage white people must be abolished and corrected. Further, there must be intentional, sustained, and large-scale effort to remediate the economic, educational, political, social, physical, and psychological harm inflicted upon people of color by racism. —Chanequa Walker-Barnes
Today we honor the lives of the Emanuel 9. Our leaders, elders, mothers, pastors whose faith, love, and leadership still guide us. In their honor, we continue the work quietly, boldly, together. 🕊️✨

Ten years ago today, nine lives were taken at Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston. They opened their hearts to a stranger and were met with hate. We honor their memory by speaking their names and continuing the fight for justice. #EmanuelNine #NeverForget #CharlestonStrong
They welcomed a stranger with open hearts. Their faith became their legacy. We remember. We act. We rise.
"I Will Rise" honors the light, legacy, and love of the Emanuel Nine. bit.ly/Emanuel_9
