A group of church and community leaders plans to talk this week with area law enforcement on ways to improve relations and “build partnerships.” The meeting, sponsored by the Interdenominational Black Ministers Alliance, is set for 6:30 p.m. Thursday at Antioch Baptist Church, 1010 Mill St, Gainesville. It serves as a follow-up to a Nov. 26 rally in Gainesville in response to civil unrest in Ferguson, Mo., but the meeting is more focused on “the dividing line between law enforcement and the minority communities,” said the Rev. Matthew Little, the alliance president.
