Community Gathering and Vigil

The Lexington community gathered together at Hastings Park from 6-9pm to hold a vigil for the victims of the Atlanta shooting. At this vigil, many people brought their own signs that stated โ€œSTOP ASIAN HATEโ€ and lit candles. Also at this vigil, community leaders in Lexington gave speeches about stopping hate crimes against Asians. We had KSLC members volunteering at the event by distributing candles and running the banner signing table. We plan to give the signed banner to the city of Atlanta, Georgia. We thank everyone who attended the event.
