80 People Turn Out in "Solidarity with Charlottesville"





Organized within hours by Women's March St Augustine and Indivisible St Johns, a Candlelight Vigil was held in solidarity with the citizens of Charlottesville VA who saw one killed and many injured Saturday as an alleged white supremacist rammed a car into a crowd of peaceful counter protestors.
Eighty people turned out in the Plaza de la ConstituciĆ³n, St. Augustine to honor Heather Heyer, the 32 year old paralegal killed by the car, and to express solidarity, resistance to hate and the power of unity and non violence. Over 700 rallies and vigils were held across the country Sunday.
