Remembering Rev. Clementa Pinckney

BBC World Service - World Have Your Say, Remembering Rev. Clementa Pinckney

Friends of Reverend Pinckney tell us about his life.

We hear from people who knew Reverend Clementa Pinckney. He was one of the nine people shot in a church in Charleston last week in what police believe was a racially motivated attack. Rev Pinckney's body has been laying in repose in the rotunda lobby of the state's capitol for public viewing.  Tomorrow, President Obama will deliver a eulogy at his funeral. We'll hear personal stories from school friends and colleagues about who he was and how important he was to his congregation and the wider America society.
