If you remember 1976, you recall the Bicentennial Minute that taught a moment s worth of American history each night on CBS, the story of how and why our nation began on July 4, 1776.
And the rockets red glare, The bombs bursting in the air. Gave proof through the night. That our flag was still there. We should always be reminded that the reason why we have lived with so much freedom was because the men of 1776 were willing to fight and die in a revolution.
Those are facts.
But an anti-American elite promoting globalism (and foreign entanglements) regularly lies to us, saying America actually began in 1619, when African slaves arrived in the English colony of Virginia. Note, Virginia was an English colony. They were not the first slaves on the continent: the Spanish had been bringing slaves to the Americas for a century at that point.
