The FUMCOR Social Concerns Committee wants everyone to know that Anderson County is currently struggling with the issue of book banning. A small group of persons in our community is seeking to ban books which present LGBTQ families in a neutral or positive light. There is a public forum to discuss these issues on Monday, March 27 from 6 to 9 pm at the Clinton Community Center.

Our Social Concerns Committee members want to encourage everyone for whom this is a passionate topic to prayerfully consider attending the gathering. If you have questions, you may contact the Committee Co-Chairs, Becky and Greg Smith at smit92611@gmail.com.

It is important for us to support the Anderson County Library Board’s process and fight against those who want to circumvent the safeguards that are in place for public discussion.
