The
victims of the horrible crime at Mother Emmanuel AME have now been laid to
rest, including Tywanza Sanders, who was a graduate of our own James Island
Charter High School.
The members of
the South Carolina Legislature who represent James Island have all stated their
support for removing the confederate flag from the statehouse grounds
I have written Senator Campsen, Senator
Thurmond, Representative McCoy and Representative Stavrinakis to share my personal
support for their considered judgment.
The Town does not fly any confederate flag, however,
I anticipate such flags will be flown from time to time at special events recognizing
its role during an important period of the history of our Island.
