00:02I'm doing a criminal investigation into some of your staff.
00:07Essentially the librarians are my suspects.
00:11Have you a real love of people, books, and learning?
00:14You may well consider the vocation of a librarian.
00:18It didn't dawn on us that we would come under attack.
00:25The word I have on my heart is repentance.
00:27We have librarians who are misunderstanding what is healthy and good for children.
00:32When I was first attacked, a student's mother was calling me a pornographer, pedophile, and groomer of children.
00:39Do not interrupt my time.
00:46That was my office.
00:48These are two books that I was asked to be removed and I would not remove them.
00:53We were going to pull books off the shelves.
00:55Stamp, color purple.
00:58Yep, there's your nudity right there.
01:00Get rid of them. Get rid of them.
01:02This book was banned.
01:04I would like to know how the history of the KKK is pornographic.
01:10We have a movement within America that has decided that school boards are now where they want to push their
01:15agenda.
01:16This stuff is coming into your schools and it's probably already there.
01:29Part of the ethics of our profession to support the First Amendment and fight censorship.
01:35I've had former students reach out to me that have told me books have saved them.
01:40I'm going to speak out about it.
01:43This is not a communist nation.
01:46You do not get to pick our reading material.
01:48It is ours.
01:50You're trying to arrest librarians.
01:52No, I do not understand.
01:53You're a fascist.
01:54You're a fascist.
01:55I 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.
02:06This is a spiritual war.
02:08Our goal is to spread this into other communities.
02:11This is about taking away rights.
02:13I'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.
