Next, I'm Making Sense of the Madness, a Martin Luther King Day special with Dr. Carol Swain.

She'll help us understand how to keep Dr. King's dream alive in the context of what's going on with the radical left.

We're going to question the mainstream narrative and expose media propaganda right now. People came into my life and the ones that took an interest in me and steered me forward,

they were white and many of them were white men.

And these people encouraged me that I could do anything and I did not see myself as handicapped

because I was black, I was a female, I was poor, I didn't see any of that until I got to graduate school.

And then I learned that I was oppressed, that I was poor, that I was black, that I was a female,

and that I couldn't do any of the things that I had already done.

And so I believe the 1619 project offers a very crippling message to our children.

And I was spared from having that message brought to me.

And I believe that if I had been exposed to that, if I had internalized that negative message,

I don't believe I would have been able to do the things that I've done in life.

I believe in America. I believe America is the greatest country in the world.

I'm a patriot. I want to do everything that I can for this nation to bring it together.

And I think that we do need to learn to love and respect each other.

And this negativity that's seeping into our schools, that's teaching, for one thing, white

children are being shamed. They're being told to be ashamed of themselves because of the color of their skin and black children are told that because of structural

discrimination that they can't they can't they can't we have to counter that we are at an important tipping point in this nation

what we do matters and I believe that the 1776 project, that this project is an important

historical moment, and we need people to get behind us.

We need to make sure that our message reaches white, black, Asian, Hispanic, everyone.

America is a great country, and we need to fight for it.
