Rev. Al Sharpton Asks Why President Trump Has Not
Publicly Reached Out to the Family of Heather Heyer
NEW YORK, NY – This morning on MSNBC with host Stephanie Ruhle, Rev.
Sharpton said it was wrong and reprehensible that President Donald Trump
has not publicly offered
support for the family of Heather Heyer, the advocate who was killed
protesting a rally of white supremacists in Charlottesville, VA, on Saturday.
Sharpton
has said that President Trump has not gone far enough to denounce the
hate-filled white supremacism on display over the weekend, and to add
insult to injury, President Trump has not
publicly reached out to the family on behalf of the American people.
On August 28,
Rev. Sharpton, along with more than one thousand ministers of all
faiths and backgrounds, will convene in Washington, D.C., denouncing
white supremacy and reaffirming
their commitment to the social justice movement in the spirit and
legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
