Script:.
I understand what it’s like to stroll into a space where naked truth appears like a foreign idea. Where merely speaking your mind can feel frustrating. Where the starting principles of The United States of America are honestly mocked.
Simply to offer you a concept of how unusual things can get at the UN, think about that the Human Rights Council is dominated by a few of the world’s worst human rights perpetrators– nations like China, Cuba, and Venezuela. And America, the country that has actually secured the God-given rights of numerous countless individuals all over the globe, is easily knocked.
Why am I informing you this? Due to the truth that many college campuses have ended up being as anti-American– which is to state ethically backward– as the UN. And the only individual who can set it best side up is you.
That’s due to the truth that I am if that sounds like I’m asking you to take on a heavy problem. I would not be asking if I didn’t believe you depended on it. I totally believe that you are.
I’ve spoken at a lot of colleges. That’s why I’m optimistic about America’s future. I know that it’s tough to speak up.
What is it that I’m asking you to do? Protect your right to speak up. Safeguard America.
Speaking up does not suggest being disrespectful and, naturally, it never ever suggests resorting to violence. It indicates, having the truths and stating the truth with clearness and function. And, if you’re saying the truth, do not pull back, even if your classmates or instructor– or, in my case, the representatives of 193 governments– try to make you look silly.
Safeguarding America suggests you require to understand American history. Start with the main sources: The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Federalist Papers, George Washington’s goodbye speech, the Gettysburg Address and Lincoln’s 2nd inaugural.
Discover America’s history on your own. Constantly keep in mind that you’re comparing America to reality, not to paradise.
America has a terrific story to notify. What the protect racial equality was to prior generations, the fight for totally free speech and intellectual flexibility is to your generation.
Never ever before, in my life time, can I remember when more Americans were as stifled or as continuously notified what they’re permitted to think and what they’re permitted to state.
And what are we allowed to say in America? What sorts of trendy ideas are considered advanced by our leading universities? Typically, they’re the truly very same ones embraced by the criminals on the Human Rights Council: That America is racist, that industrialism– the only financial system to raise billions of individuals out of poverty– is the source of our issues, that socialism is bliss, that versatility of speech is not that crucial.
These are extremely bad ideas. They’re likewise dead wrong. There is no concern that America can and must improve.
Where the founding principles of The United States of America are easily mocked.
And America, the country that has actually safeguarded the God-given rights of hundreds of countless individuals all over the world, is truthfully criticized.
Securing America shows you require to understand American history. America has an excellent story to inform. And what are we allowed to state in America?
Where the starting principles of The United States of America are truthfully mocked.
Protecting America suggests you need to know American history. Always keep in mind that you’re comparing America to reality, not to paradise. Frequently, they’re the truly exact same ones upheld by the thugs on the Human Rights Council: That America is racist, that industrialism– the only economic system to raise billions of individuals out of poverty– is the source of our issues, that socialism is bliss, that versatility of speech is not that vital.
Securing America suggests you require to understand American history.
