Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: We got a question for American mama's. Dear mama's, how
- 0:02Speaker 1: do we stop the left from teaching our kids the
- 0:04Speaker 1: wrong history of America? Well, let's ask our American mama's.
- 0:08Speaker 2: Mama, Mama, and joining us now our American mama's Terry
- 0:22Speaker 2: Needdiville and Kimberly Burlison.
- 0:24Speaker 1: You know we were talking last week. There's a new
- 0:25Speaker 1: video out from John Stossel, and he talks about slavery,
- 0:30Speaker 1: about the things that were told about slavery, about how
- 0:33Speaker 1: American slavery was worse than any other slavery in the
- 0:36Speaker 1: history of the world, and Nope, that's just not true.
- 0:41Speaker 1: And he talks about the real history of slavery, about
- 0:43Speaker 1: how actually slavery was worse in other parts of the
- 0:46Speaker 1: world and other histories and things like that, and the
- 0:48Speaker 1: main slave traders were actually Arabs. So this is something
- 0:54Speaker 1: that we're not taught in school. We're not taught that.
- 0:57Speaker 3: You know what.
- 0:57Speaker 4: This reminds me of a story I saw recently. This
- 1:01Speaker 4: teacher she wanted to teach the history teacher. She was
- 1:04Speaker 4: wanting to teach a lesson to her students, so she
- 1:07Speaker 4: and another teacher pretended they were in a fight they
- 1:10Speaker 4: got in a fight in the classroom that the principal
- 1:12Speaker 4: come in, take the teachers out of the room, and
- 1:15Speaker 4: then the principal said to all the students, I would
- 1:17Speaker 4: love for y'all to write down what you witnessed, because
- 1:20Speaker 4: we want to take all that you've the information you
- 1:22Speaker 4: give us to decide what we're going to do about this.
- 1:25Speaker 4: Next day, the teachers come in, they tell the students,
- 1:28Speaker 4: this was a test. This is a lesson for you guys.
- 1:31Speaker 4: This was all fake. All of the message, all of
- 1:34Speaker 4: the things that the kids wrote had a different angle
- 1:37Speaker 4: on it. You know, some kids it was based on
- 1:39Speaker 4: who they favored, which teacher they liked more. Some kids
- 1:42Speaker 4: it was based on the position, the angle that they
- 1:45Speaker 4: were seeing what took place. And her lesson to the
- 1:48Speaker 4: kids is that history can be subjective, that the person
- 1:52Speaker 4: writing history, it depends on the lens in which they
- 1:56Speaker 4: saw history. Yes, so that's one thing that we have
- 1:59Speaker 4: to be aware of as we are living in the
- 2:01Speaker 4: midst of history. We are living in the midst of
- 2:04Speaker 4: some crazy times that are going to be talked about
- 2:07Speaker 4: for a long long time, historical times. So what is
- 2:11Speaker 4: the history going to be taught? What through what lens.
- 2:15Speaker 1: Very good point because right now, if you were to
- 2:18Speaker 1: interview professor's history professors as who the best presidents are,
- 2:24Speaker 1: Donald Trump comes in in some of those surveys as
- 2:26Speaker 1: absolute dead last, and they'll point to the fact that
- 2:30Speaker 1: he was impeached twice. That they'll point to January sixth
- 2:33Speaker 1: and things like that. They don't mention, Okay, well, actually
- 2:37Speaker 1: there were no new wars while he was president, that
- 2:40Speaker 1: that incomes were going great, that they're the illegal aliens,
- 2:45Speaker 1: illegal immigration dropped down to almost nothing. So they don't
- 2:49Speaker 1: cover the actual amazing good things because their perspective of
- 2:53Speaker 1: what's going on in history is very different. That they'll
- 2:56Speaker 1: rate LBJ as one of the best presidents ever even
- 3:00Speaker 1: though the Great Society programs that he put in place
- 3:02Speaker 1: have destroyed the black family in America. So you see
- 3:05Speaker 1: that it's not just the people at the time of history,
- 3:07Speaker 1: but also how they the people who were writing about
- 3:09Speaker 1: history today are looking back on history.
- 3:12Speaker 4: So what do we do.
- 3:14Speaker 3: Because you're saying it happen that right now in real time,
- 3:16Speaker 3: we're actually seeing journalists, you know, whether they're.
- 3:20Speaker 1: They get the first brush of history.
- 3:21Speaker 3: Yes, we're seeing them take the assassination attempt for example, okay,
- 3:27Speaker 3: and belittling that, and some are even saying that he
- 3:31Speaker 3: planned it. I mean, it's crazy what they're allowed to say.
- 3:33Speaker 1: On the FBI was saying, we're not even sure he
- 3:36Speaker 1: was hit by.
- 3:36Speaker 4: A bullet, and he knows better, and he knows better.
- 3:39Speaker 3: See, this is what this is the hard part for
- 3:42Speaker 3: most the majority of Americans. Just state the facts.
- 3:45Speaker 2: You know.
- 3:46Speaker 3: It's so funny because when Trump was first elected, I
- 3:49Speaker 3: remember because that you know, the media had their meltdown, right,
- 3:53Speaker 3: and I remember thinking, because I was so naive at
- 3:55Speaker 3: the time, you know what, y'all will see, get over it,
- 3:57Speaker 3: You'll see because you've got to report the fact. You've
- 4:00Speaker 3: got to report what he does and what he accomplishes.
- 4:03Speaker 3: So by the end of the four years, I'm sure
- 4:05Speaker 3: that these people, George Stephanopolis and all of them would
- 4:07Speaker 3: be will say, you know, I had my doubts, but
- 4:11Speaker 3: he did this, this, this in the Middle East. You know,
- 4:13Speaker 3: he did all these things with a border. What I
- 4:17Speaker 3: did not anticipate was that they would lie every step
- 4:20Speaker 3: of the way. They know what he has done, they
- 4:23Speaker 3: know what he accomplished, and yet they refuse to report
- 4:26Speaker 3: on it. So do I think that those the fact
- 4:30Speaker 3: that we know the truth. Do I believe that this
- 4:32Speaker 3: is what's going to be in the history books for
- 4:35Speaker 3: our future children and grandchildren. I don't because I don't
- 4:39Speaker 3: trust that. I don't even trust the teacher's Union that
- 4:42Speaker 3: what's her name wineguard what's her name, right, Randy Winegardner
- 4:47Speaker 3: or something. You know, she is so far to the left,
- 4:51Speaker 3: we don't have anybody in the middle where it counts anymore.
- 4:55Speaker 3: That she already is erasing history, she's manipulating history. She's
- 5:00Speaker 3: in charge of the teacher's union.
- 5:02Speaker 4: Well, don't you question your history now? I question everything
- 5:06Speaker 4: that we've learned.
- 5:07Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't question my history now, simply because I've
- 5:10Speaker 1: been a fan of history and I've read a lot
- 5:13Speaker 1: of it just out of my own curiosity. But I
- 5:15Speaker 1: will point out back in the nineteen nineties, I used
- 5:17Speaker 1: to cover this couple, just a mom and a dad,
- 5:20Speaker 1: actually grandmother and granddad in Marshall, Texas, and they were
- 5:24Speaker 1: so concerned that what their grandkids are going to be
- 5:26Speaker 1: taught about history was not true that they read every
- 5:29Speaker 1: single history book that came up for approval by the
- 5:31Speaker 1: Texas legislature to be used in classes and this mom
- 5:34Speaker 1: and pop then would go to the Texas legislature and say,
- 5:38Speaker 1: this line here in this book is not factual. This
- 5:40Speaker 1: line here is not factual. This line here's all that.
- 5:43Speaker 1: And as they did that, they forced the state of
- 5:46Speaker 1: Texas to reject history books by Random House, by all
- 5:51Speaker 1: the major publishers. And because Texas purchased more textbooks than
- 5:54Speaker 1: anybody else as a group at the time, if the
- 5:57Speaker 1: textbook companies didn't change the history to match what was
- 6:00Speaker 1: actually being said by this couple out of Marshall, Texas,
- 6:04Speaker 1: they wouldn't make a profit that year. We need them
- 6:06Speaker 1: wow to keep going. If you like Desker American Mama
