		</div><p>The South Carolina House of Representatives has approved taking down the Confederate flag from the state capitol grounds.</p>
<p>The move is a stunning reversal in a state that was the first to leave the Union in 1860 and raised the flag again at its statehouse more than 50 years ago to protest the civil rights movement.</p>
<p>The move early today came after more than 13 hours of, at times contentious, debate.</p>
<p>It also came just weeks after the fatal shootings of nine black church members, including a state senator, at a bible study in Charleston.</p>
<p>The state House of Representatives approved the Senate bill 93-27, and still has one more vote which appears to be perfunctory, since they have met two-thirds approval.</p>
<p>The bill will then go to Republican governor Nikki Haley, who supports it.</p>
<p>The flag could come down within days.</p>
