PHOTO BY POLLY NORTON FAIRMONTÂ â Concerned about the rise in hate crimes, a number of Marion County residents say it's time to take a step back and instead turn focus on acceptance and tolerance. On July 24 and 25, the Marion County Communities of Shalom and the Fairmont Human Rights Commission will host a free event called âBuilding Bridges of Respect.â Instead of pointing out differences, the purpose of this event is to talk about and demonstrate inclusiveness.
