‘It’s human rights. It’s our children learning that the world can be a beautiful, rainbow place with literacy rather than narrow views,’ supporter says
In a classroom inside Country Hills Library, a member of Calgary’s drag community reads books to children.
The program, held on March 27, was recorded in a video provided to The Canadian Press by the Calgary Public Library after declining a request for a reporter and a photographer to attend. Dozens of members of the drag community and its supporters gathered closer to the entrance of the library. James Demers is an activist who helped with the rally. Reading with Royalty, he said, has been running for five years without problems.
