The group Not in Our Town Bloomington-Normal says more violence is never the answer.
"We're all human beings. We all are here. We all deserve to be treated with fairness and dignity. And how do we foster that in our community?” says Mike Matejka.
Not in Our Town was created to fight racism, sexism, and bullying. In the wake of the Dallas attacks and police involved shootings this week, the group says the key to moving forward is opening a dialog.
They are hosting a community prayer service at 7 pm, Monday night, at First Community Christian Church to give people a chance to share their concerns and comfort one another.
