Public library refuses to host meeting which excludes people by race
The Nashville chapter of Black Lives Matter accused a public library of “white supremacy” after librarians refused to host a meeting which banned whites from attending.
BLM Nashville attempted to set up a meeting at the North Branch Library in North Nashville, but after group organizer Joshua Crutchfield said “only black people as well as non-black people of color are allowed to attend,” the library told BLM to find a new location.
“All meetings at our facilities must be open to the general public and news media,” library spokesperson Emily Waltenbaugh said. “We’re a library. We’re taxpayer funded.”

ReplyDeleteI'm glad the library stood up to them. Let them rent a hotel room or something for their Bigoted Loud Mouth meetings. I hope they don't back down, and end up renaming the library after some hateful black racist and dedicating an entire wing to their "literature". Not that their "history" requires or deserves much shelf space.
ReplyDeletethey should hold meetings where they normally do - chicken man

ReplyDeleteGood for the Library, let them go out in a field and stomp around in circles spewing their hate.
ReplyDeleteThey wanted equal rights and got them.
