VIDEO: He Said THIS About America in 1969. Now Listen to His Sobering Message 50 Years Later – Goosebumps
In this monologue, the host, Red, shares a poignant memory from his school days when his teacher emphasized the true meaning of the Pledge of Allegiance. The teacher noticed that the students were reciting the pledge without understanding its significance, so he took the time to explain each word. He defined even simple terms like “state” as a group of towns with shared purpose, and more profound ideas like the flag representing freedom.
After this detailed explanation, the students recited the pledge again, likely with a deeper appreciation. Red’s message highlights the importance of teaching children the meaning behind what they say, not just rote repetition. He emphasizes that understanding is essential for nurturing free-thinking individuals who recognize the value of sacred concepts like freedom and patriotism.
