The sight of the Confederate battle flag flying on the grounds of the South CArolina Capitol has been unbearable for many after a white supremacist killed 9 people at a historically black church.
But for a brief time around dawn Saturday, it wasn't there.
the Black Lives Matter movement said in a statement an activist, who calls herself Bree, took it down herself around 6:30 a.m . Video shows her climbing the flagpole on the State House grounds in Columbia just after sunrise, as a number of people look on from the ground.
e, according to the S.C. Department of Public Safety, Bree was charged with defacing a monument, as was a man who was standing inside the wrought-iron fence enclosure.
