1619 Project author Nikole Hannah-Jones channeled former Democratic Virginia gubernatorial nominee Terry McAuliffe during an interview on NBC’s Meet the Press Sunday, saying she didn’t understand the idea that “parents should decide what’s being taught” in schools.

Hannah-Jones made the comments during a special edition of the Meet the Press with Chuck Todd that focused exclusively on the topic of race and public schools.
