GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP) — Hillary Rodham Clinton praised South Carolina leaders for removing the Confederate flag from Statehouse grounds but said the country must “dig deeper” against racial injustice.
“America’s long struggle with racism is far from finished,” she said at a technical college in Greenville, South Carolina, on Thursday.
Separately, she defended Planned Parenthood against attacks from her Republican counterparts who are using an edited video to accuse the women’s health care and abortion provider of profiting from the sale of fetal tissue to researchers.
She accused Republicans of a “concerted effort” to undermine a woman’s constitutional right to terminate a pregnancy.
