The Charleston International Airport has opened an exhibit in
remembrance of the nine parishioners killed and five others wounded
during bible study at Mother Emanuel AME Church.
In the airport's Central Hall, two
five-foot-high stained glass panes separated by a glass partition show
the church with nine white doves and a cross. Encased in glass in the
center of the exhibit, lay a Bible open to Mark 4:13-20, the very
passage of scripture that the bible study group was reading when white
supremacist Dylann Roof began his massacre. A closed bible belonging to
Rev. Clementa Pinckney, who was killed in the shooting, is placed beside
it.
