Our public libraries have been taken over by liberal ideologues and nowhere has this been more evident than at the American Library Association (ALA) annual conference held last month in Washington DC. The world’s largest library conference, attended by 21,460 people, featured over 100 workshops with the theme “equity, diversity, and inclusion.”
As you would expect, these workshops included topics such as Drag Queen Storytimes, LGBT issues, non-traditional families, minors’ “rights” to privacy, and gender confusion. According to The Federalist, “Politically charged talks and workshops like these formed at least one-third of the conference offerings.”
Of all the different themes and topics showcased at the conference, the most disturbing content was the instruction and training on how to handle community objections to perverted events and literature.
The instruction was specifically centered around how to push back against community concerns and opposition. Of course, the community foots the bill for these public libraries and these librarians’ salaries. Taxpayers also paid for many of the attendees to go to the conference itself! Taxpayers are not, apparently, entitled to an opinion as to what goes on at the public libraries with their tax dollars.

Major Library Association Conference Featured Training on “Community Resistance” to Drag Queen Events
Not a surprise, AT ALL. Librarians, or at least their main association, fought like mad to ‘protect’ the right of children, of any age, to use the internet in their libraries, to access ALL SITES. The fight came up when Americans attempted to impose some restrictions on what little kids have access to in public libraries.
I don’t know why they hate families so much, but this is the country we live in.
This is what we got when we traded in Librarians for graduates of “Library Science”.
>>minors’ “rights” to privacy
How queer. It’s a public library. Everything is out in the open, right?
The ALA doesn’t care about movie ratings or porn magazines being “Adults only”. The ALA position is that anything in the library is available to anyone who requests it, regardless of ‘Ratings”. And some libraries (at least at one time) shelve “Playboy” magazine if for the articles/interviews and nothing else.
DON’T LET YOUR KIDS GO.
Pretty simple solution.
No attendees, no perverse programming.
Don’t the serve the community?
if the community doesn’t want it, shouldn’t the libraries accede to the community’s wishes?
CONSERVATIVES must run or be appointed to LIBRARY BOARDS to stop this madness. Conservatives, LIBRARIANS are key too. It’s past time to clean house.
