With building-size banners and pocket-size patches, organized vigils and spontaneous outpourings, people across the Southland and the nation have rallied since the terrorist attacks to show their support for the Stars and Stripes. ‘Build a memorial, build it in granite . . . light a candle, but I’m telling you, the greatest

The Rev. Calvin Butts
Abyssinian Baptist Church, New York
