Responding to display last week, people gathering at @UVA Namless Field here in #charlottesville



Nora Neus‏ @noraneus
I'd guess over 750 people here now at the candlelit vigil, still more pouring in #charlottesville

Candles instead of torches. This is Charlottesville.

1. And here's the song that most fits that moment:

[WePurrsevere]

6. Thank you...

It's been many years since I've heard this and it's perfect for this sad occasion.

2. Watching it on CNN

And an interview with a couple of women who were in the car that was rammed by the fascist terrorist. It's heart breaking.

Those poor people; I can't imagine having my beautiful city terrorized by hatred like they've had to endure.
