“Faith, city and police leaders in Akron are hoping to build trust with the community.”
AKRON, Ohio — Faith, city and police leaders in Akron are hoping to build trust with the community. Saturday afternoon, Burning Bush Church in Downtown facilitated a community conversation.
“It’s absolutely imperative to not only talk, like we are now, but to listen,” said Mayor Daniel Horrigan. Another person said, “I didn’t even know if I should call the cops, but I saw someone that was clearly out of their mind. What’s going to happen to this person if I call the cops?” “Are you willing to let that narrative shift a little bit?” asked Bryndon Glass, the pastor at SPAN Ministries. “If you’re not willing to allow that narrative to change, you are here for the wrong reasons.”
