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.
01:09We have a movement within America that has decided that school boards are now where they want to push their agenda.
01:17This stuff is coming into your schools, and it's probably already there.

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.
