Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hello, Nina, and Emily. I'm going to talk to you today.
00:00:21.000 Can Emily and I be in a different place for PPC?
00:00:27.000 I'm not going to do PPC. Well, see, the problem with that is you said that we have our own rights with what we believe, and now you're not letting them.
00:00:35.000 We have different beliefs with this thing, and we think that what you just said about it is not true at all.
00:00:41.000 They do have overtly racist policies, so we can't do PPC in the class. They have no seats.
00:00:48.000 Even earlier, it's not open to debates, and the HWDSP has policies explicitly banning racism from the class. I can't do PPC in the class.
00:01:00.000 Well, we believe that that's not racism.
00:01:04.000 Their policies are racist. I can't do it in class.
00:01:08.000 Can I go call my dad, then, please?
00:01:11.000 Sure.
00:01:12.000 Thank you.
00:01:14.000 Thank you.
00:01:15.000 Thank you.
