After protests, a Florida library canceled its 'Pride Prom,' saying it couldn't guarantee a safe environment
A Florida library's Pride Prom was supposed to be a safe space for LGBT youth between ages 14 and 18 to connect with peers and learn about community resources.
But the sold-out Jacksonville Public Library's Storybook Pride Prom -- scheduled for Friday -- was canceled after protests from religious groups and residents. Religious group Biblical Concepts Ministries protested the event and called for residents to reach out to the city and mayor's office to have it canceled, CNN affiliate WJXT reported.
