Pro-LGBT Children’s Books at Public Libraries in Arkansas

LGBT

As Family Council has written before, pro-LGBT children’s books have made their way into public libraries in Arkansas.

For example, the Central Arkansas Library System has Rainbow: A First Book of Pride and ‘Twas the Night Before Pride at some of its locations.

Other books like What Are Your Words? and Jack (Not Jackie) promote transgender behavior to children.

According to information published online, these pro-LGBT books are intended for kids in pre-school and early elementary school. That’s simply inappropriate.

So what can families do if they find pro-LGBT children’s books in their libraries?

Communities can take steps to remove objectionable material from their local libraries.

Library boards and librarians have leeway to establish selection criteria and make decisions about the kinds of material available on the library’s shelves.

Library patrons generally can use a Material Reconsideration Form to ask libraries to remove inappropriate material.

And voters can call on their elected officials to enact laws protecting children from objectionable material in public libraries.

Arkansas Children’s Hospital Celebrates LGBT Pride Month

LGBT,

On Wednesday Arkansas Children’s Hospital in Little Rock took to social media in celebration of LGBT Pride Month.

The hospital posted on Twitter,

Children’s Hospital also operates a pro-transgender Gender Spectrum Clinic for minors, and it includes pro-LGBT literature from the ACLU, the Human Rights Campaign, and other organizations on its website.

As we have written before, researchers do not know the long term effects that puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones can have on kids.

That is part of the reason many experts agree that giving puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones to children is experimental, at best.

Family Council has unsuccessfully attempted to find out what protocols Children’s Hospital follows when it comes to giving puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones to children.

It’s unfortunate that one of Arkansas’ leading hospitals is celebrating LGBT Pride Month and promoting pro-transgender ideology to children and families through its clinic.
