The Federation of Korean Associations, USA will hold a meeting with leaders of African American groups due to escalating anti-Korean sentiment among African Americans in Dallas, Texas.

The federation on Tuesday said that it will meet with leaders of African American groups on Thursday in Dallas.

The meeting will apparently be attended by leaders of local chapters of several groups, including the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and the Nation of Islam.

The federation is known to have already contacted the NAACP and agreed to settle the issue smoothly. The meeting in Dallas was reportedly arranged by the association mediators.
