[00:00:00]I I don't understand why you're incapable of answering.

[00:00:02]>> I'm not giving you the answer you want.

[00:00:04]>> No, I want the answer. Whatever your answer is.

[00:00:06]>> I just gave you the answer.

[00:00:07]>> No, the answer is yes or no. So, let's talk about so-called illegal DEI, as you all have called it, a phrase you've continually bring up uh that I'm still unclear on, especially after three federal judges have preliminarily ruled that your illegal DEI guidance is likely unconstitutional, uninforceable, illegal, as it were. Uh, Secretary McMahon, during your confirmation hearing, you were asked uh by Senator Chris Murphy if an African-American history class violated the administration's position on diversity, equity, and inclusion. You said you'd like to look into it. Um, you've been on the job for a few minutes months now.

[00:00:39]Have you been able to look into it?

[00:00:41]>> I do not think that uh uh African studies or Middle East studies or Chinese studies are part of DEI if they are taught as part of the total history package. Uh, so that if you're giving the facts on both sides, of course they're not DEI.

[00:00:56]>> I don't know what both sides of African-American history would be. Would you say that it would be an illegal DEI for a lesson plan on the Tulsa race massacre?

[00:01:04]>> I'd have to get back to you on that.

[00:01:06]>> Do you know what the Tulsa race massacre is?

[00:01:07]>> I'd like to look into it more and get back to you on it.

[00:01:09]>> Okay. So, I look forward to that. How about um the book Through My Eyes by Ruby Bridges, for instance?

[00:01:15]>> I haven't read that.

[00:01:18]>> Have you learned about Ruby Bridges?

[00:01:21]If you have specific examples you'd like that was a specific example I'll be very happy.

[00:01:25]>> It was an incredibly specific example. I named a specific questions and I will look into it and get back to you on the >> How about a school having a voluntary celebration for Pride Month?

[00:01:35]>> Well, I think that um >> voluntary.

[00:01:38]>> Well, let's make sure that in our schools or we're looking No, it's not.

[00:01:43]>> Okay. Uh how about social studies standards that teach that President Biden won the 2020 election?

[00:01:48]I think our school our studies should all be taught accurately.

[00:01:52]>> Yes or no?

[00:01:54]>> I think our studies should No, no. The question was, do you believe that social study standards that teach that President Biden won the 2020 election is an illegal DEI? Yes or no?

[00:02:03]>> I think I have said we should teach accurately. We should >> No, you have not answered the question.

[00:02:08]I don't understand why you're incapable of answering.

[00:02:10]>> I'm not giving you the answer you want.

[00:02:12]>> No, I want the answer. Whatever your answer is.

[00:02:14]>> I just gave you the answer.

[00:02:15]>> No, the answer is yes or no. Oh, the answer is I >> The answer is yes or no.

[00:02:19]>> Gentle ladies, >> thank you so much.
