HILLSBOROUGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- Hundreds of people took to the streets in Hillsborough Saturday to march against hate. This comes one week after the KKK showed up unannounced outside the Orange County Courthouse.
"A March against White Supremacy" started at the Margaret Lane Cemetery and moved to the courthouse downtown.
"This is our community. We are the taxpayers that are in this community, and we're going to drive the conversation - not people outside the community," Latondra Strong, with Hate-Free Schools Coalition, said.
"Hillsborough is the kind of community of people of what's right about small-town America," Mayor Stevens said. "That means we have to be dealing with some of these issues and some of these hateful messages that are not just in Hillsborough but we have to deal with in communities across America."
