The event came as sheriff’s deputies continued their hate crimes investigation into an incident on June 11, when several apparent Proud Boys disrupted another reading in San Lorenzo.
Vowing that “we aren’t going anywhere,” the performer King Art Babe forged ahead Tuesday evening with the Alameda County Library’s first Drag Queen Story Hour event since a group of apparent Proud Boys members disrupted another reading earlier this month in San Lorenzo.
At one point, the library’s staff helped the performer, Panda Dulce, flee to a back room while others called the sheriff’s office for help. Dulce later returned to finish the reading after deputies responded and the apparent Proud Boys members left.garnered national attention amid a wave of anti-LGBTQ rhetoric across the country
King acknowledged that Tuesday’s felt different than other performances — adding that her husband initially wanted her to cancel hours beforehand. “This is something that is completely wholesome, family-friendly and just fun — it’s just joyful,” King said after the reading. “I want to normalize it,” Nagaraj said. “I think this is probably the best story time of her life so far.”
