00:00I'm doing a criminal investigation into some of your staff.

00:08Essentially, the librarians are my suspects.

00:11Have you a real love of people, books, and learning?

00:15You may well consider the vocation of a librarian.

00:19It didn't dawn on us that we would come under attack.

00:25The word I have on my heart is repentance.

00:28We have librarians who are misunderstanding what is healthy and good for children.

00:33When I was first attacked, a student's mother was calling me a pornographer, pedophile, and groomer of children.

00:39This? Do not interrupt my time!

00:47That was my office.

00:49These are two books that I was asked to be removed, and I would not remove them.

00:53We're gonna pull books off the shelves.

00:55Stamp.

00:57Color purple.

00:58Yep, there's your nudity right there.

01:01Get rid of them. Get rid of them.

01:03This book was banned.

01:05I would like to know how the history of the KKK is pornographic.

01:34I've had former students reach out to me that have told me books have saved them.

01:40I'm gonna speak out about it.

01:42This is not a communist nation.

01:46You do not get to pick our reading material.

01:49It is ours.

01:50You're trying to arrest librarians.

01:53You're a fascist.

01:54You're a fascist.

01:56I cannot imagine my face on the wanted poster and my friends being taken away in handcuffs.

02:03You're coming for teachers and librarians, and they know it.

02:07This is a spiritual war.

02:09Our goal is to spread this into other communities.

02:11This is about taking away rights.

02:14I'm here today to implore you to listen to librarians.

02:18What is going on?

02:20This can't be America.

02:23No, this can't be America.
