NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:02.358 --> 00:00:04.444
against two city councillors after

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:04.444 --> 00:00:06.694
they reportedly drafted a proposal

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:06.694 --> 00:00:08.494
behind closed doors condemning

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

teaching diversity programs in Lewiston

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:11.030 --> 00:00:13.000
schools. The proposal targets after

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:14.970
school programs at Lewiston schools,

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:14.970 --> 00:00:17.728
which have been offered for two years.

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:17.730 --> 00:00:19.625
Council President Lee Clement and

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:19.625 --> 00:00:21.938
Counselor Rick La Chapel drafted the

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:21.938 --> 00:00:23.743
proposal with city administrators without

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:23.743 --> 00:00:26.400
the mayor or City council's knowledge.

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:30.090 --> 00:00:32.562
Is critical race theory and says

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:32.562 --> 00:00:34.210
they contain radical thinking.

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:34.210 --> 00:00:36.394
Mayor Karl Shaleen of the calls

NOTE Confidence: 0.868837

00:00:36.394 --> 00:00:39.150
this a breach of transparency and

NOTE Confidence: 0.8178774

00:00:39.150 --> 00:00:41.988
a horrible action.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8178774

00:00:41.990 --> 00:00:43.820
I think the councillor should

NOTE Confidence: 0.889521

00:00:43.820 --> 00:00:45.800
be focused on city business rather

NOTE Confidence: 0.889521

00:00:45.800 --> 00:00:47.606
than working on divisive partisan

NOTE Confidence: 0.889521

00:00:47.606 --> 00:00:49.306
statements behind the scenes.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8769521

Lewiston Superintendent calls the

NOTE Confidence: 0.8769521

counselors take on these

NOTE Confidence: 0.8769521

00:00:57.072 --> 00:00:57.988
