The murder of nine African Americans in a Charleston church last week has sparked a debate over the removal of the Confederate flag that killer Dylan Roof brandished in photos, a flag that waves on the Capitol grounds in South Carolina. The flag has been a symbol of slavery and racial hatred since the days of the Civil War waged in the United States from 1861 to 1865. Protesters have demanded the removal of the flag and the South Carolina legislature decided on Monday to debate the issue. Bianca Perez reports from Washington DC for teleSUR.
