‘Drag Queen Story Time’ hits Boston Children’s Library to end Pride month. Outrage, joy erupts.

Perhaps you recall New York’s Brooklyn Public Library recently began sponsoring a Drag Queen Story Hour for toddlers, which adults in the crowd exclaimed that it was "fantastic” and "great.”

Well, it looks like the Boston Public Library is doing the same thing.

Its Children’s Library was the locale for a Drag Queen Story Time on June 29, library spokesperson Rosemarie Lavery on Friday confirmed to TheBlaze.

The event was slated to mark the end of Pride month, the main library’s Facebook noted, and would feature the Boston Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.

The group’s website says "we are a modern Order of Nuns, comprising of people of all gender associations, all spiritual affiliations, and all proclivities to do good works” and the "five aspects of our Practice include Service, Education, Activism, Entertainment, and Ministry. We believe that people should be encouraged to live their lives in any way that brings them the most amount of satisfaction and joy, without guilt or shame, so long as they do harm to no one. This underlying philosophical tradition of pure non-judgmentalism informs every aspect of our Practice.”

The caption of a photo advertising the event on the Children’s Library Facebook page reads: "Let’s end Pride Month with a drag… drag queen storytime, that is!” The caption also appears to indicate it would be a return visit for the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.
