I’m inviting you to no longer prioritize places that are actively engaging in behavior that works to oppress groups that have been marginalized. this is incredibly disappointing. We can spend our money in places that continue to uplift and support ALL people.

Now if the rest of the nation would recognize the power of libraries, we’d be in a better place.
