Downtown Charleston event ‘Stop the Hate’ took place one day later, attendance was lower than expected

Charleston, S. C. – ‘Stop the Hate’ rally took place Sunday morning in Charleston downtown, one day later than scheduled.

Confederate Defenders of Charleston monument at White Point Garden was the meeting point and the group of people gathered around 10 a.m.

The attendance was lower than expected probably because of the Covid-19 pandemic. Some of the people were carrying “Black Lives Matter” flags and other signs.
