Nine years ago, Charlotte City Councilman Malcolm Graham’s sister, Cynthia Graham Hurd, was murdered as part of a racially motivated mass shooting at Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina.
Last week, President Biden visited the church and met with families, including Graham.
Graham recently met with host Tim Boyum to discuss his sister's death and meeting with President Biden. They also talk about how Charlotte’s city council is responding after a Charlotte mass shooting on New Year’s Eve.
