"Kirk Cameron and Riley Gaines' Book Event Canceled by Alabama Library"

Actor-writer Kirk Cameron, along with his publisher Brave Books and special guest Riley Gaines, have been informed that their planned book reading event at Madison Public Library in Huntsville, Alabama, cannot be accommodated due to concerns about logistics and safety. The library system cited the event's anticipated attendance exceeding capacity as the reason for the cancellation. The organizers, Moms for Liberty, failed to apply for an event permit in advance, and the city resources cannot support an event of this size on short notice. First Liberty Institute, the law firm representing Cameron and Brave Books, has threatened legal action, claiming unlawful religious viewpoint and content discrimination. Despite the cancellation, Cameron and Brave Books plan to continue with their scheduled events at other libraries.
