City leaders in Asheboro are denouncing plans by a North Carolina Ku Klux Klan group to hold a rally there in May.
Mayor David Smith says his city has worked too hard to become unified to let the group come in and spread racist views. The May 6th rally was posted on the website of The Loyal White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.
So far no applications for the event have been received by the city.
