Author: JJ Maldonado Updated: 7:29 PM CDT July 13, 2021 LONGVIEW, Texas — The city council of Longview is prepared to discuss a resolution on Thursday's meeting in response to a social media post claiming a 'White Unity Conference' was to occur on Sept. 25 in the city. The resolution would reject and condemn hate groups and bigotry of all kinds, according to the official document. "The resolution is a statement," Andy Mack, mayor of the city of Longview, said. "That our city, we don't condone hate, bigotry, we don't condone racism, we don't condone those things but no city should condone those things. You shouldn't have to have a resolution to state what you already know and live in your heart."
