Montana State Library Commission votes to withdraw from national association
“Our oath of office and resulting duty to the Constitution forbids association with an organization led by a Marxist,” read the language the commission voted to send to the ALA.
Neat trick considering that said document predates and therefore has no concept of Marxism.
“We ought not promote, celebrate or support what scripture condemns,” said Dana Gonzalez, who was in favor of withdrawing, before quoting scriptures from the Bible she said condemned “what Emily has stated,” referring to the ALA president-elect.
I am sure that the American Libraries Association is shattered that they are losing the learned theological commentary of Dana Gonzalez and the rest of the Montana State Library Commission.
