Charleston, June 22 (RHC)-- An estimated 20,000 people gathered on the Ravenel Bridge in Charleston, South Carolina, Sunday evening in a show of unity to commemorate the nine African-American people shot and killed at the Emanuel AME Church last week.

The march came after the church held its first services since Wednesday night’s massacre. Reverend Dr. Norvel Goff delivered the sermon. He said: "The blood of the 'Mother Emanuel Nine' requires us to work until not only justice in this case, but for those who are still living in the margin of life, those who are less fortunate than ourselves, that we stay on the battlefield until there is no more fight to be fought."
