Blue Out the Anderson County Commission Meeting

If Anthony Allen makes it past the Nominating Committee, the full County Commission will vote to decide whether he becomes Chair of the Anderson County Library Board.

This is our last chance to stop it — and the most important one.

We need to show up in force to remind our commissioners that our public libraries are for everyone, not just the loudest voices trying to rewrite the rules. No book banners. No power grabs. No silence.

Wear blue. Fill the room. Let them know we’re watching.

Blue Out the Nominating Committee

The people who tried to censor our public libraries are back — and this time, they’re aiming for control. Commissioner Anthony Allen, who led last year’s attacks, is now trying to chair the Anderson County Library Board. That means he’d control the agenda, lead the meetings, and steer the future of our libraries.

The Nominating Committee has the first say. Let’s pack the room in blue and send a clear message: our libraries are not political pawns. They belong to the people.

Wear blue. Bring a friend. Show up for your library.
