Bernie's Charleston SC Meeting Postponed Due To Tragic Shooting

An email I received last night:

"Larry,

Given the horrific attack at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, Bernie is postponing his visit to Charleston, which was originally scheduled for Sunday.

The healing of the Charleston community has to be the only priority in this time of mourning.

Thank you,

Bernie 2016"

Others have posted his email and video condolences to the victims' families and comments about the shooting elsewhere on DU.
