In a select board meeting in Littleton, N.H., Carrie Gendreau, a member, expressed concerns about a mural painted downtown by a group supporting LGBTQ+ individuals. This sparked a town-wide controversy, revealing deep political and religious divides. Gendreau faced backlash for her outspoken views, leading to resignations and community upheaval. Ultimately, a new board member was elected, and the select board voted to end the practice of starting meetings with prayer. The town is now working to heal and promote inclusivity.
