Reply to comment by IcyWillow1193 in DC Library hosting far right story hour with Libs of TikTok, Jack Posobiec, and Kirk Cameron on 3/29 by scene_missing

Yes, and I get that. But this isn’t just like normal political speech so every side should get access. This is people who do blatant hate speech and the library should not give a forum for that.

You clearly don't.

Missing the whole point of free speech

We don't have the ability to refuse Kirk Cameron use of the space so long as he abides by library rules. So long as he is just doing a public reading from his book and doesn't start to actively proselytize while on the building campus our hands are tied.

Lucky for me I don't work at Cleveland Park and as such won't have to deal with this awful meeting, but I feel for the staff who do.
