FLORISSANT, Mo. (AP) — Hillary Rodham Clinton says the Confederate flag “shouldn’t fly anywhere.” The Democratic presidential contender addressed church members Tuesday in suburban St. Louis during a campaign stop.

Ms Clinton calls the deadly shootings of nine black church members in South Carolina “an act of racist terrorism perpetrated in a house of God.” She welcomed news that South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley and legislators are working to remove the Confederate battle flag from the grounds of the South Carolina Statehouse.

Clinton called the Confederate flag a symbol of the nation’s racist past that should have “no place” in the country’s present or future.
