Mashable reported it confirmed with Sanders' friends that the posting was authentic.
He posted a video that shows one white man in the group at the far end of a table, that man was identified by Sanders' friends as Dylann Storm Roof, the alleged shooter.
Sanders, 26, graduated last year from Allen University, where he studied business. In a news release, the school described Sanders as "a quiet, well-known student" with "a warm and helpful spirit."
