These are the 9 victims of the terrorist shooting attack at “Mother” Emanuel AME church in Charleston, SC. Now that he’s been arrested, let’s delete all our pictures of the shooter and remember the victims instead. His name should be forgotten. Theirs deserve to be remembered. 

Their names, from left to right, top to bottom, are:

Tywanza Sanders: Recent graduate of Allen University in Columbia, SC.

Sharonda Coleman-Singleton: Mother of three, reverend, and beloved high school track coach.

Clementa Pinckney: Church pastor and S.C. state senator.

Cynthia Hurd: A 30+ year veteran librarian at Charleston County Public Library.

Myra Thompson (not pictured): Wife of Anthony Thompson, a vicar at Holy Trinity REC.

Ethel Lee Lance (not pictured): A 70 year old grandmother who had worked in the church for over 30 years.

Daniel Simmons (not pictured): A staff member at the church.

Rev. Depayne Middleton-Doctor: Mother of 4, sang in the church choir.

Susie Jackson: 87 years old. Longtime church member and a member of the Order of the Eastern Star.

Reblogging because the rest of the victims’ names and photos were just released – I have updated the post accordingly.

…crying again. Look at all of these beautiful, wonderful souls. What a senseless snuffing out of precious life.

One of my favorite versions of this song. The sound of the guitar was perfect. I did screw up, but it still sounds great. This is on a free album, so get your copy today.

Donald Trump announced that he is running for President. 

Donald Trump inherited his entire life and privilege.

As Trump would be quick to point out, he never declared bankruptcy for himself. His business was declared bankrupt in those years. So a Trump presidency would likely involve a massive increase in the country’s deficit while the White House would be plated in gold.

So you’re telling me a white terrorist responsible for the killing of 9 churchgoers is able to be detained safely and will probably be afforded a trial, but children like Tamir Rice, Trayvon Martin and Aiyana Stanley-Jones (none of which committed any grievance other than existing while black) absolutely needed to be executed to the point that none of the officers responsible for their murders were convicted of any crimes?

In 180 Seconds You Will Be Voting For Bernie Sanders 

We need to give this man the media attention he deserves because he does not have the funds that the other potential candidates have.

I’m over it with elected officials being backed by big money and using our votes to get the top 1% more money. Bernie has said NO to a SuperPAC and to billionaire funding, so we need to throw our votes behind him and show THE ENTIRE WORLD, including our own corporations and financial institutions that AMERICA IS NOT FOR SALE!!!!

He has reportedly over 20% of the democratic vote, and he actually stands a chance if he gets the primary! VOTE FOR BERNIE SANDERS IN THE PRIMARIES!
