Abstract

The article discusses the effectiveness of a campaign to remove a Confederate flag from outside of the South Carolina State house following a racially-motivated mass shooting at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal (A.M.E.) Church in Charleston, South Carolina. Topics addressed include the roles of churches, social media campaigns, and relatives of the shooting victims in leading the movement, as well as calls by Nikki R. Haley, the Republican governor of South Carolina, for the flag's removal.
