Kirk Cameron wants to hold the American Library Association accountable for what he believes is discrimination against him and his pro-faith messaging.
Cameron is working with First Liberty Institute, the nonprofit Christian conservative legal organization based in Texas, to attempt to hold the American Library Association accountable for what he believes is discrimination against him and his pro-faith messaging, judging by its recent advisories to libraries across America to explore ways to "block" his upcoming nationwide story event on August 5.
First Liberty Institute is the nation’s largest law firm "dedicated exclusively to defending and restoring religious liberty for all Americans," the organization says. However, Cameron told Fox News Digital he was "shocked" to "see ALA staff, funded by its $250 million budget, use those hard-earned taxpayer dollars to train librarians to discriminate against God-loving families and secretly sabotage a return to wholesome,He added, "Historically, the local library was created to be a safe place for all people to read about all topics — including God’s good design for the family, nations and the world.
Beginning in December 2022, Cameron has traveled to libraries across the country, conducting a story hour tour during which he's been reading from his books "As You Grow" and "Pride Comes Before the Fall."
