Fox News reports:
Actor-writer-producer Kirk Cameron, who was originally denied or ignored by over 50 public libraries in America for a story-time book reading connected to his new children’s book, appeared at the Indianapolis Public Library on Thursday — and was met with the biggest crowd the library had seen in 137 years, according to the library.
Cameron and his publisher, Brave Books, booked space for him to read and discuss his new book, “As You Grow,” at the Indianapolis Public Library after they were originally rebuffed. But Cameron and Brave Books persisted — and ultimately Cameron was able to address the thousands of people who showed up to hear him and his messages.
Mediaite reports:
Kirk Cameron may be suing “woke libraries” for refusing to allow him to promote his biblical children’s book. Cameron joined Fox News anchor Julie Banderas on Friday to discuss pushback against his new book, As You Grow.
According to Cameron, his book is full of “biblical wisdom and the fruit of the spirit, which is love, joy, kindness gentleness, faithfulness, self control.” The actor at one point also pulled out a copy of the Constitution and declared he’s prepared to take dozens of libraries to court.
Banderas at one point read an email to the Scarsdale Library in New York from Cameron’s publisher. The email said the actor would speak on the “harmful effects of woke ideologies, specifically CRT and the transgender agenda.”
