UNION COUNTY, N.C. — The Union County Library abruptly backed out of plans to participate in the county’s pride events and will not participate in the festival.
Pride organizers said the decision came from Union County government leaders.
Union County Pride President Cristal Robinson is organizing the county’s first pride festival in September.
Robinson said they had plans with the library to host seminars this pride month and in September when the festival will be held.
Organizers also planned a drag queen story time and partnered with the library to host a book club for teens, because they said the library is a safe space.
“We’ve actually had a few kids who have committed suicide in the last five years, and I just want to tell them we live here,” Robinson said. “We have families here.”
Robinson said she got an email from a librarian that they were backing out of all pride events.
“It’s discriminatory,” Robinson said.
She asked for an explanation but didn’t get one, but Union County later sent Channel 9 a statement.
Union County officials said three of its four library branches have “Take Pride in What You Read” displays for Pride Month. The library’s collection is available to patrons.
Robinson said she doesn’t blame the library staff.

Pride in perversity?? No thanks.
Pushback is the only way to stop the insanity.
men should step up.....
Libraries don’t participate in the celebration of bestiality do they? There ya go.
Well, since it's tied up in Probate L. O. F. L.
Hell, that could take forever.
People are going to be asking city councils to stop funding
libraries pretty soon.
They can’t take their kids there any longer without them
being groomed for a host of things that normal humans can
not sign on to.
That’s a great idea 💡! I’m passing this along. Thanks!
It used to be a place where mothers could take her children to pick up books, not a place to be groomed/molested by creeps.
Can’t just tolerate it, you’re wrong if you don’t celebrate it.
Sort of like the bad news for the first person who stopped clapping after a Stalin speech.
It also used to be a place where responsible kids could be
dropped off while mom and dad did some errands. I doubt
that’s the case any longer.
Yeah. The past couple of decades.
The reading thing made it clear to me, the libraries were
becoming boiler plate Leftist political indoctrination
centers.
I ask again, how can any sane person remain a Democrat?
(for that matter, a RINO either)
Time to defund libraries.
The internet is available to help pick up most of the slack,
so I’m game.
Oh the howling that the Left would make.
That will make it worth it. We can probably defund up to 60%-70% libraries in existence right now. Libraries in urban areas will still be funded but who cares? They're in "no-go" zones anyway.
The ones in the urban areas are the ones that need to go the
most.
Every time I see any mention of gay pride anything, I think of that line from Moe the bartender on The Simpsons:
“I’ve done some things in my life I ain’t proud of...and the things I am proud of are disgusting.”
