CONFIRMED: NAZIS COWERED BUTTE-SILVER BOW COUNTY INTO BANNING LIBRARY HISTORY LECTURE
Adria Jawort (me) was banned from doing history lecture as Nazi's brag of "campaign of complaints."
Officials also cite drag ban law as applicable to trans ppl.

At 11:14 am June 1 I received an email from an apologetic library employee who informed me Chief Executive JP Gallagher and County Attorney Eileen Joyce "have decided that it is too much of a legal risk to have a transgendered person in the library. I really regret this.” (sic)

16 minutes after this message was sent and at 11:30 am, JP Gallagher had the audacity to do a performative proclamation in alleged support of Pride Month.

The weeks leading up to the library event had already been contentious as they library receiving harassing calls to where they deemed it necessary they have law enforcement at my history lecture.

One of the people harassing the library and making fallacious complaints via Facebook was apparently made by Corey Allen—which AntiFascists immediately recognized to be the 'alternate' account of known Nazi, Sebastian Cambell aka “Cleetus Montana”—by way of Kentucky.

When not harassing women librarians via the comfort of squatting in the Old St James Hospital, Campbell spends much of his time putting trash Nazi literature all over Butte and, apparently, using beer bottles to hit Butte citizens.

A "Covenant" account who responded, "🤣🤣we win" to a Tweet of mine is Billings-based Nazi Andrew “Sal” Salacinksi.

He always uses variations of the handle "Covenant Soldier."

Now, unlike other Nazis who fear reprisal for not covering their face for throwing out literature promoting genocide, Salacinksi shows no qualms about being a true believer Nazi.

Here he is in Missoula and Bozeman protesting LGBTQ events, & he'd bragged of carving a swastika and other trash Nazi symbolism into a sacred Indigenous site in near Billings.

Someone else spreading misconceptions about the event on the official Butte-Silver Bow County website I was told was Lyndsay Alt, a woman with an LGBTQ-phobic history who billed my historical lecture as, “An entertainment performance by a Drag Queen.”

While dance performance & art as an aside which includes drag, to call me quoting books w Spanish Priest writings of the 16th Century amongst other historic topics an "entertainment performance" seems a bit of a hyperbole, u think? I'm fascinating, but it was lying by ommission.

Butte justified it was cuz the event was a drag queen who "reads children's books & engages in other learning activities w minor children present."🧐
It's a possible kid might run on over on lunchbreak to catch a few minutes of a history lecture🙄, they're in school until June 8.

An estimated 10,000 to 15,000 LGBTQ folks were sent to concentration camps where they “were among the most abused groups in the camps,” according to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum.
These are the types of violent, bigot pieces of shit Butte-S Bow County took orders from.

Now, what we have re: drag laws are a version of 21st Century "masquerade laws" used to target trans people w back in the 1950s and 60s with to arrest them for wearing articles of clothing of the opposite "biological" gender.

Then Stonewall happened, & they stopped doing that.

❤️ you, stay safe, & most importantly, *have fun* out there this Pride Month, fam. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
