Mount Zion AME church in Greeleyville, SC was yet another of numerous african american church in a southern state that was recently set on fire. Police are saying that after investigating the scene lightening was the cause of this fire. But a burnt door doesn’t provide enough evidence to confirm that conclusion. Now coincidence or not? This same church was set on fire by the Ku Klux Klan 20 years ago, and is also not far from the church in Charleston where 9 african americans were shot and killed in last month.
The investigation is said to still be ongoing even though police are not giving much insight other than attempting to put it aside as a natural cause and nothing more. But one thing is for certain and that is that we need an answer to the big question swirling around lately asking #WhoIsBurningBlackChurches ?
