WATCH: Charlottesville Victim's Father Says 'People Need To Stop Hating'
Heather Heyer's father, Mark, told reporters he's proud of her courage — and that he's trying to follow her "fierceness of heart" and peaceful example. "We just need to forgive each other," he said.
Standing in the dappled shade of a driveway hundreds of miles from Charlottesville, Va., Mark Heyer spoke of the violence that claimed his daughter's life — and, with voice occasionally quavering, called on people to answer hate with forgiveness.
"My daughter was a strong woman that had passionate opinions about the equality of everyone — and she tried in a videotaped interview. "With her, it wasn't lip service. It was real."
