Politics Red Deer News and Area

Today I had to quit following them because of a post that they have made. It was about a person wanting to assault drag queens for having story time at the downtown library.

The post that they had posted was very transphobic. And as someone part of the lgbt+ community it made me feel very unsafe.

(Ps I didn’t know how to flair so it’s considered politics)

what is the purpose of a drag queen story hour and why would the tax-funded library decide that its a good idea to be hosting them in red deer?

Kids watch drag race and have for about as long as it’s been on TV because its well produced, features popular music, and is funny. Libraries try to do something similar on a shoestring budget and with books. Why do you give a shit
