Native American elder Nathan Phillips said Thursday that he is ready to “forgive” the Covington Catholic students. He also continued to insist that he bore no fault for the confrontation that spawned a viral video over the weekend.
During a wide-ranging interview with “Today Show” host Savannah Guthrie, Phillips explained details of the confrontation at the Lincoln Memorial, sticking to several points that have since been debunked by video evidence.

Guthrie began the interview by asking whether Phillips had seen her interview with Nick Sandmann, the high school student Phillips had come face-to-face with as he beat his drum.
“I was upset I was made to sit down and watch it. I read his statement. When I got into the first — well, somebody tried to show it to me before I went to my prayer ceremony. I got into about the first 30 seconds, 40 seconds of it, and I said, well, that’s all I needed to hear,” Phillips said.
When Guthrie asked what he thought of Sandmann’s words, he added, “Coached and written up for him, insincerity, lack of responsibility. You know, those are the words that I came up with. But then I went to go pray about it, and I woke up with this forgiving heart. So I forgive him.”
