Christian author-actor Kirk Cameron read to children outside New York Public Library on Friday after publisher Brave Books said he was denied space inside 20 different library branches. "Freedom is a rare and precious gift," said Cameron.
Actor and writer Kirk Cameron is continuing his tour to public libraries across the country as he stresses family, faith and country in direct opposition, he and his publisher say, to "woke" agendas perpetuated in so many areas of the country.
On Saturday, April 29, he's scheduled to speak in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, at the public library there (close to the border of Pennsylvania). It will mark his 10th story hour across the nation, he and his publisher, Brave Books, shared with Fox News Digital.
"We have heard from so many people in the New Jersey area that have committed to bring their families," a Brave Books spokesperson told Fox News Digital on Friday.

"We were even able to partner with Moms of Liberty to help get the word out."
Cameron told Fox News Digital in emailed comments on Friday, "Teaching our children to love God and the Bible is part of true worship — sacred work not to be subcontracted out to those who hate God and abuse our children."

Cherry Hill Public Library confirmed that Cameron and his publisher have rented a room at the library on Saturday.
It is considered a private event, the library said.

Cameron also told Fox News Digital about Saturday's event, "Sean Feucht will be leading us in a worshipful, family-friendly singalong — and it will make this 'Brave Story Hour' an unforgettable and spirited experience."
Feucht is an accomplished musician who's released nine studio albums and eight live albums. He recently did a 50-state " Kingdom to the Capitol tour."

Feucht is a husband and father of four children.
"It wasn't America that founded religious liberty — religious liberty founded America," Feucht said recently.
He has also commented on a time in America today in which "there's such division and there's such isolation."
"Parents are tired of seeing far-left ideologies shoved down their children's throats."
Brave Books said Feucht will sing the national anthem as well as some of his own songs on Saturday, according to the publishing company.
Brave Books staff told Fox News Digital that "just as in most major cities across the country, New Jersey parents are feeling the pressure from the left to teach their children 'woke values.'"

During the last school year, young grammar school students in New Jersey were taught lessons related to gender identity under the state sex education guidelines.
This included discussing "the range of ways people express their gender and how gender role stereotypes may limit behavior."
Said a Brave Books spokesperson, "Parents are tired of seeing far-left ideologies shoved down their children's throats."
"We are hopeful that this event will be a breath of fresh air to the citizens in New Jersey."
In contrast, the event on Saturday is being described as a "family-friendly event with wholesome content."
The publisher is planning a "patriotic time of singing, educational time and of course story time for the children."
Said a Brave Books spokesperson, "We are hopeful that this event will be a breath of fresh air to the citizens in New Jersey."
Journalist John Solomon will also take part in the event on Saturday, said Brave Books.

Cameron wants to groom kids to become haters!
A truly ignorant comment.
I see that maybe the left just doesn't like promoting family, faith and country.
The hate he spreads is not "Family Values"...
Then provide examples of this HATE you claim but can't substantiate.
Shall I wait or will you just bust out another stupid meme?
So no proof as usual but lots of dumbfuck memes.
Par for the course.
Hey, have you forgotten your fucking hero Joe is (GASP.....wait for it.....wait for it..) a CHRISTIAN?!?!?!?!?!??!
Oh, no!
Your memes make piss-poor arguments and do nothing to substantiate anything you have claimed.
Don't you ever tire of posting cartoons?
[deleted]
still waiting to see a link to your claim he is being hateful.
either you can back up your claim or post cartoons.
I see you have made your choice for cartoons.
I will just have to assume your lack of evidence for such claims is simply because it doesn't exist.
Don't forget their queen Nancy is a Catholic.
The hate from most on the left should be apoplectic.
It would be if we were talking about a Republican Catholic.
I don't need a link. The article confirms it...
Kirk Cameron is an evangelical fundie!
Most people in the US fall within the range of normal...in their beliefs and behavior.
Where do the progressives and their supporters fit in?
Give it a few minutes.

Hey everyone, stop with the taunting. Only warning.
I can't stand him or his equally phony sister. He's a freakshow, Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.
we're not the ones always having things 'shoved down our throats' like cameron
Times are tough for aging has-been losers...
“Has-been loser”?
Doe that mean no longer a loser?
"Has-been" is an adjective describing the noun "Loser". [Deleted]
Probably why Cameron is promoting his new "Gag Queen Story Hours"...
He even looks brainwashed.
Who knew Cameron would end up being such a threat to some on the left?
Ah, just another dumbfuck meme.
[Deleted]
Man, get on the WH Hotline and tell Joe he isn't a Christian.
Might want to give the Pope a call, too!
LMMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Since all you have are memes and insults and ZERO FACTS, I'll leave you to your little group of 'friends'.

So sang the multimillionaire living on the upper West Side in Manhattan. He couldn’t imagine no possessions.
Maybe someone was impressed because they thought the Beatles were bigger than Jessus Christ?

If only Cameron would have included a couple of drag queens into his story hour, the left would be celebrating him.
Is that his bitch ass?
don't you know?
Bad translation, should read “Awoke,0’ sleeper” and “Stay Awoke”,
awake awoke tomato tomahto
A rose by any other name…
