Hillary Clinton To AME Church's Bicentennial Conference In Philadelphia

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton has postponed her campaign event in Scranton. It is unclear yet if she will still be in Philadelphia Friday night.

Clinton was scheduled to appear in Scranton before attending the African Methodist Episcopal Church's Bicentennial Conference. This changed in light of the tragic events in Dallas.

The AME Church was founded in Philadelphia in 1816.

The conference kicked off on Wednesday at the Pennsylvania Convention Center as thousands of bishops and delegates were on hand.

The Democratic National Convention is set for July 25-28.
