i want to play some sound from governor huckabee sanders and get your thoughts on the other side.r students and push this propaganda leftist agenda teaching our kids to hate america and hate one another. it's one of the reasons that we put into law banning things like indoctrination and crt. >> you know, the miseducation of lauryn hill, the album is named after the miseducation of the negro, 1933, and he talks about this idea that education that doesn't teach people about their history will result in a docile, nonactive, nonengaged population. do you see that happening in arkansas, if huckabee sanders is successful in making this state-wide policy where kids don't learn about what happened in their own hometowns? >> look, that's the end game. the end game is to create a society that is docile, folks that will not push back. this administration is a unique combination of ignorance, malice, grift, and laziness. i have never seen a combination like that before. and it all comes together in a way to try to suppress people. and this is not disconnected from her signing a law that says

. >>> sarah huckabee sanders has been governor of arkansas for a little more than seven months, whichnot that long, but boy, has she hit the ground running. if you think the big problem with america is that we have child labor laws, well, she's taken care of that. she immediately got to work as a new governor, getting rid of those, making it easier to put arkansas children to work doing adult jobs. kids younger than 16 used to need a state permit to verify their age and grant them permission to work. the governor now says that permit put an arbitrary burden on parents so that burden is lifted. let's get your 14-year-old to work. also governor huckabee sanders rolled out an interesting online application for anybody who wanted to be on an arkansas state board or commission. the application to be on a state board or commission included this prompt for a 500-word essay. quote, what is an accomplishment of the governor's that you admire the most? that's a requirement to be on an official state commission of any kind in arkansas. you have to put together 500 words on what you love about th

this is sarah huckabee sanders, lying about canceling african american a.p. the arkansas education department removed credit for controversial a.p. african american studies course. let me read to you what the naacp said and let you respond. they said the arkansas state conference of the naacp is appalled at the recent decision of arkansas department of education to make a hasteful decision at the final hour to do away with a.p. african american studies. is that really what happened there? >> absolutely not. we cannot perpetuate a lie to our students and push this propaganda leftist agenda teaching our kids to hate america and hate one another. >> dean, i didn't realize taking a.p. african american studies would make children hate america. did you? >> no. and to call african american studies propaganda is despicable. this is all part of the critical race theory bans that are laws in numerous republican states. the goal is to erase black achievement because it undermines the myth of white supremacy and erase black suffering at the hands of white bigots in the p

arkansas's sara huckabee sanders joins us now.ive us your reaction about this. >> the white house continues to move the goal post, one minute they never had conversations, necessary they had 20 conversations, but it was just niceties. we continue to see that happen and big question, why has the white house not been transparent from beginning to where we are right now. >> joey: you are governor of the state and your dad was governor of that state. you know what it is like to be the child of somebody well known and you turned out pretty well. hunter was an addicts, that doesn't exonerate he or his dad, does it? >> no, there is tremendous amount of pressure. to your point, that doesn't mean you get to do anything you want and joe biden didn't deal with that and he is the president and chose that and he has to take steps to protect himself and the presidency and office and he hasn't done that in his role as vice president or president and responsibility lies on him and we should be holding his feet to the fire and we haven't seen the

i also want to point out something sarah huckabee sanders is doing.know the degradations of enslavement while she is has also signed a bill allowing child labor. to me these are connected. if your pushing child labor, a new form of slave type labor, low wage child labor, not surprising to me that you don't want people to know the history of enslaved labor. >> right. because when we don't know history, we are not empowered to make a better future. we're not empowered to understand and the levers of oppression that they pull. she simultaneously, or with the same hand, signed a bill that allows the child labor law. this administration, shocking but not surprising, is a bad mix of malice, arrogance, incompetence, and just outright laziness. what you get when you have all that mixed in together are bills like this. they didn't even take time to figure out what the implications would be on schools. that's why they called two days before school started. it's a shame, but again, i'm glad there are so many folks in arkansas saying not today, we're standing up

there is as far as we know six i schools in the state planning on offering it before governor huckabee sandersit for if you take it. because we believe this is indoctrination. are any of those schools expecting fallout from the state? because of the decision? it feels like a pretty direct confrontation. it's not like an army national guard but it is a direct confrontation with the office. >> at this point in my reporting, i have not heard that concern expressed but i will say that one of the things mr. roberts shared was that it is one thing you've had little rock central high school, the school he helped integrate commit to moving forward. one question he has is will they be successful ultimately if there is continued pressure? but so far, as you've said, the sick schools participated in the pilot, still planning to move for. we'll definitely be watching to see if there are developments on that front for sure. >> it should not be an act of bravery to take an african american studies course. it should not be an act of bravery on school administrators to offer it. but time is a flat circle. rec

now, the state's governor, sarah huckabee sanders, has been a vocal critic of what she's been calling to make sure that we are not indoctrinating our kids. and that these policies, these ideas, never see the light of day. we should never teach our kids to hate america. or that america is a racist and evil country. >> joining me now is attorney of the school board member for the little rock school district, aly nolin. she is representing two plaintiffs in a lawsuit against the learns act. ali, thank you for joining us. i wonder, do you believe that this ap african american studies course does violate the text of that new state law, the learns act. >> absolutely not. this course is an essential and important part of american history. what it does, it provides students with a regional documents, so they can learn the critical thinking skills to be able to interpret and make around decisions about these topics. so, it is the opposite of indoctrination. >> cnn spoke with the communications director for governor huckabee sanders, she pointed out that this is a pilot class. that african amer

injustice of being led by willfully lack of a better word on people i think that in arkansas sarah huckabee sandersblock access to or create barriers to access for african american study courses they do not want to teach students to hate america. on the same hand, on the other hand, rather, arkansas still offers european studies at the navy corps. european history is replete with examples of people who hate the united states. we have this thing called the american revolution. people, fundamentally, hated the concept of america. i think both of these things speak to an attempt, and assault rather, on the tools that have been used to hoist african americans up from sunglasses in ships throughout history education isn't a main tool that is used to help african americans. if you're able to brainwash the atrocities committed in the past, and downplay the severity of them. i think it's easier to commit those atrocities in the president. i think that's what we need to do is contextualize assault on african american history as part of a right-wing assault on black and brown civil rights. >> but don't you t
