The massacre that took place Wednesday evening at a historic Black church in Charleston, South Carolina was reminiscent of what African-Americans went through during the Civil Rights Movement. The incident, which is being deemed a hate crime, brought attention to hate groups that exist within the area. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, there are 17 hate groups in South Carolina, including two related to the Ku Klux Klan and four that are labeled as “White nationalist” organizations. One of the organization’s websites blatantly bears the words “If you call us racists, our response will be ‘So what?’.” South Carolina is one of five states that doesn’t have a law against hate crimes.
