Two native South Carolinians and pioneers in the Black community, Harvey Gantt, the first Black Mayor of Charlotte, and the honorable South Carolina District 6 Congressman James Clyburn, engaged in a fireside chat on Tuesday night at First Baptist West Church in West Charlotte.
Clyburn discussed his latest book, ‘The First Eight’. He also addressed South Carolina’s early voting on Tuesday and shared his thoughts on the state Senate’s rejection of President Trump’s campaign to redraw South Carolina’s congressional map. Senator Clyburn has been in office for more than 30 years and the redrawn congressional map, if passed, could have cost the lawmaker his seat. He is the ninth Black South Carolinian to serve.
