A group of activists set fire to two Confederate flags in Philadelphia, only steps from the Liberty Bell.
The activists gathered at Independence Mall Friday afternoon to voice their opposition to the flag.
The activists placed two Confederate flags inside a metal tub, doused them with lighter fluid and set them on fire.
The burning of the flags was in response to the shooting of nine church-goers during Bible study at a historically black church in Charleston, South Carolina, Wednesday night.
