The Navy’s top admiral on Tuesday vociferously defended efforts to root out racism and to promote diversity in the service against GOP criticism of his decision to recommend sailors read a book derided by conservatives as anti-American.

Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Michael Gilday has been taking heat from conservatives over his inclusion on a list of books he recommends of Ibram X. Kendi’s "How to Be an Antiracist.”

At a House Armed Services Committee hearing Tuesday, GOP Reps. Doug Lamborn (Colo.) and Jim Banks (Ind.) asked Gilday to respond to specific Kendi quotes.
