This should be taught in schools, period. This is so important for people to know.
Yes It Really Is 👍
Furthermore, especially in today’s political climate people should know whites and blacks have been spilling blood together for that flag since day one. One of the first casualties of the Revolutionary War was an African American named, Crispus Attucks.
This shouldn't be taught in schools, because it's not true.
@@CJandRINA That is precisely why it was removed. BTW, have you guys ever heard the fourth verse? Key actually wrote the poem after witnessing the bombardment of Fort McHenry in Baltimore during the War of 1812. That was the war when the British burned the White House after marching on Washington to destroy evidence of the original 13th Amendment which forbade Americans from holding Titles of Nobility from foreign governments - such Esquire. Ever wonder why the men who signed the Treaty "ending" the American Revolution signed as "His Majesty's Faithful Servant" and "Esquire"? Ever wonder why the Jay Treaty twenty years after our "victory" asked the King of England to remove his garrisons from "our"cities?
@@brainalien3116 Where is your evidence? Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
Watching y'all instantly put your hands over your heart when the song started brought a tear to my eye. Y'all are awesome!
Thank You ..Your Awesome Too❤️
Because you are a lovely couple that came instantly and instinctively to "Fidelity" (being at attention with right hand over heart), you have gained serious respect and a "subscriber". Bless you and your family.
@@theaffiliate4208 I instantly subscribed to them out of respect for their show of respect, if that makes any sense.
Agree they are awesome
Me too.
That’s why people don’t let the Flag touch the ground and get angry when they see people burn it. My husband is a 22 year veteran and nothing makes him more angry than that. Thank You for this reaction. Oh and little girl is to cute . 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
and it should make you equally as mad to see a confederate flag flying instead of, or next to our star spangled banner.
@@eekmeout Who said anything about the Confederate Flag 🤔
@@pongogab you didn't, i just like to bring it up when people talk about flag burning.
@@eekmeout people fought and died so you have the freedom to burn the flag
@@eekmeout.... Awwwkwarrrd!
"We would die on feet, before we live on our knees"
👏
He means of course standing up for our morals.
The slaves that did not start an uprising themselves on the plantations, were not living on their knees morally, they were surviving under captivity. So its important to remeber he means for your morals, lest of course you don't consider the passive slaves Amercian patriots, which I do.
Yessir, you got that right. A man stands, a coward kneels, unless it's before the Almighty Creator
The actual flag that stood that night can still be seen at the Smithsonian in Washington DC, tattered and all.
👏👏wow we gotta see it
The flag that flew during the battle was the smaller storm flag. The flag at the Smithsonian (that FSK saw) is the garrison flag raised that morning after the British began to retreat.
Francis Scott Key's written document of what happened is also in the library of congress.
This is the exact reason we fight. To save what they gave their lives for every generation.
Yes fighting is what we have to do
Who
@@nasiasteel9105 You can start with the Star-Spangled banner to find out "who"
This is why it is so important that we never let the flag touch the ground. As a wartime veteran, I thank your for posting and reacting to this video. God bless you.
Thank You god bless you also🙏❤️
7.62 in my hip salutes you.
... and that is why so many dislike kneeling during our National Anthem.
Your reaction is proper and the best I've seen. Not only does school need to teach this but a U.S. President should know the words to the song.
Yesss So True👏
@@CJandRINA And you are teaching your child early. 👍
How could you not shed a tear of pride!! WOW!!! So proud to be an American! Loved this reaction!!!
Thank You 🙏
The Tear I shed is for the Native Americans who dont share your inflated view of America.
While all this was going on? "AMERICANS" were doing to THEM what the British was trying to do Americans.
(How Ironic)
I shed another tear for those who had to become "Strange Fruit" and made this country rich with their blood sweat and TEARS.
Funny how we dont mention what "Americans" were doing to other human beings during this period of time.
BEST WE LEAVE THAT PART OUT, RIGHT? That part doesn't spark up too much Pride. Or does it?
@walker
What exactly are you proud of that NO OTHER COUNTRY in the world has done.
What Exactly?
Your Pride is nothing more than a soundbite.
@walker
Didn't answer the question tho Walker.
@@syriouskash537 you're so laughable. First off....did you really say no country had done this before? Australia with the aboriginals is just one of many examples. Try again child.
2nd: we do talk about what happened to the native Americans. And yes, it was horrible. It's why during the war the native tribes were split. Some helping the colonists and some helping the British. They had a truly hopeless situation and the war made it even moreso. No one denies or hides what happened there.
It's a shame that we, including myself, never really knew the story behind our anthem. The sacrifice and courage for us to be free is incredible, and I can only hope we find ourselves again. You guys are sweet. Loved this.
Thank you and yes your right👍
The people that died for this is incredible. Their children and grandchildren died to free the slaves, tells you how great these people were. I am proud to be an American. Let freedom ring! No amount of media can change that. USA FOREVER
What's more shameful is that today's generation wants to take down the flag because they see it as a racist symbol.
@@yussuqmadiq5274 That's because actual history isn't learned in school anymore. They replaced it with selective history, indoctrination, and propaganda.
Schools are teaching division these days, not actually inclusivity. There's no reason to hate a flag to a country where the people have the power to change everything.
@@DoSe420 Yes that's why Demoncratic Party people and atheist banned God and prayers and bibles and Jesus Christ and Pledges to the american flag out of schools and colleges and public buildings because of Hatred towards GOD and Jesus Christ and Prayers and Bibles and Pledges to the american flag and hatred towards american Founders Fathers George Washington and Abe Lincoln and against the american U. S. Constitution and Declaration of Independence and against Our AMENDMENTs Rights and against Our GOD'S LAWs of the 10 Commandments and against Our AMENDMENTs freedom of speech and religious education . President Lincoln has been exposing the democratic Party people as Fascism They are the Party of lying and Enslavement and Tyranny and promoting Enslavement and Promoting Lies and promoting Tyranny against the american people since 1860 the Demoncratic Party people have invented the KKKLAN in 1866 to torture to intimidate to torture to intimidate to torture to intimidate to killing innocent american black and white Republicans Party people in America ! The Demoncratic Party's KKKLAN are the first Terrorist Organization group in America the Demoncratic Party people have also invented the White Supremacists and neo-Nazis socialist Party against the american people the Democratic Party KKKLAN and White Supremacists and neo-Nazis socialist Party are the Party of Terrorist Organization group in America !
As an Australian, I have never heard the story but wow ! True patriots and solidarity to the USA
❤️❤️
when i studied for my citizenship test i saw this i cried forever
bless you. Hope your citizenship is bringing you lots of joy.
Sorry that you seem to be slipping into some kind of dictatorship. As I listen to news from Australia you have China on one side and your own government on the other side with average folk in between. I pray we all make it through this period in history. It is no longer or was ever a plague. It is now endemic. Ivermectin and Zinc friends.

Thank You Your Also Great ❤

They intentionally changed the curriculum and I am grateful I was educated before that happened.
👏👏
The little one is beautiful.
THANK YOU❤️❤️
I'm very glad that you showed this video. Remember, especially at this time when there are those who would divide us for their own objectives. We are all ONE people, black, white, yellow ,red and brown. All have sacrificed to make us so. Stay the course, keep the faith. May God continue to bless America and all it's people.

My deepest respect and gratitude, Sir.
I'm half American Indian, we have much that we could be bitter for, but I love this country, my Homeland. Yes we still have some things to work out, but we need to work them out together remembering that whatever ethnicity, we ARE Americans and need to be united as such. Even with bad things that have happened, we still live in the most free country that's ever existed. Never had there been a country like ours. We tend to forget that though we have many different Tribes & Nations within, we should remember that we are one Nation UNDER GOD. When we leave Him out and forget that, is when we run into trouble. This story and this dear family and beautiful child touched my heart and they make me proud...because we are ALL Americans. Respect for our Flag, Our Anthem (and the story behind it), our Nation, and for our People's of different Tribes. Respect to our Creator who has blessed us this far. I thank this young couple for posting this. Out of many, we become one...
@@leonceboudreaux8899
Yes, the American Indians may have had it worse than black slaves. Both were bad. But it's also true Indians would fight each other and be brutal about it also. Lands have really been fought over by one group over another for thousands of years. Well, American's fought a war to get this country and keep it. The Indians lost. But worse, they were cheated on with the Agreements they did make with white people. So I get that also. Reservations are basically jail cells without walls. There is no way to change the past. Bad things happened to people of every color in every country. Some of that is even happening now.
We can't live in the past and all the bad that has happened. We can learn from it, but Life is SHORT. All we can do is make the best of it for the short time that we are alive here on earth.
@@jbdragon3295 We can CHOOSE to UNITE or divide!
Your daughter will be SO proud of her parents when she sees this video years from now! Such a beautiful and honest reaction from you two. Loved it!
Thank you❤️🙏
Beautiful family. She’s gorgeous. 🤗
THIS is why many of us get upset about disrespecting the flag and anthem...
👏👏👏👏Ture
Wow! I’ve probably seen every one of these reaction videos and I think your the only ones that put your hands over your hearts. As a combat vet myself this is why we love the flag, it’s not just a piece of cloth to us, it’s a symbol of freedom, bravery, and sacrifice, many people of all colors died for that flag and that’s why we show respect. Thank you for showing that respect, even though I’m out of the military now, it brought a tear to my eye when you put your hands over your hearts
Thank you for your service
Just goes to show that the Education system is a failure.
Your are totally 100% right🙏❤️
Common Core, CRT, 1619 etc. must be abolished. Agenda's to dumb down our children and continue to divide us ALL from each other. With us fighting they easily draw power and control over We The People.
Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall" is a good metaphor to our education system.
It was taught to me in school, and I know the music teacher in the school I teach in goes into detail about it with her classes every year. I bet more schools teach it than you think.
@@snakecharm13
I'll take that bet ! 🙃
@@snakecharm13 Your school may be an exception. My elementary school I went to the music teacher forced us to sing a song written by an anti-american open communist every single day. I didn't know the meaning of the song till 10 years later when I did research on it.
I grow up saying this pledge every morning in school. We need to bring this back to our school rooms.
👏👏👏👏❤️🙏
I cry everytime i watch this. All parent's should teach this to their kid's. God bless you guy's
Yes they should and thank you god bless you and your family also ❤️🙏
No they shouldn't the video is complete bull shit, it is so historically inaccurate as to a work of fiction.
It was beautiful how you held your hearts while I grasped for mine, in honor of those who had paid the ultimate sacrifice to deserve us such benefit! I am an American who happens to be Hispanic Asian, this is our country and they were our forefathers who died and gave us the right to call ourselves free! I wish this would bring us all together as a proud citizens of this country, right, left, black, white, yellow, man, woman.... This is our country and as it was and is worth dying for, thus it should be worth being proud of as well!

the fort is actually Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Md. You will get goose bumps visiting the fort now that you know it's history. I know I did.

I'm not even american and I put the hand over my heart. :D It's great. KEEP AT IT, YOU ARE PRESERVING WHAT IT MEANS TO BE AMERICAN.
❤️❤️❤️
Wow. George Washington said “The thing that separates the American Christian from every other person on earth is the fact that he would rather die on his feet, than to live on his knees.”
I never heard that before but that’s a powerful quote. I’m not Christian myself but I sure will stand with them.
True statement
Your child is so adorable and you guys are the best with multitasking. But the child mimicking is the cutest! “Oh woooowww” 🤣 love it
THANK YOU SO MUCH 😍❤❤❤
@@CJandRINA I think your kid is trying to understand what you were watching and trying to imitate your positive outcome of the Video . 👍❤️🌹🇺🇲 I can tell your beautiful kid is going to be great at whatever she wants to be in life 💞!
I thought that was cute too.
These are our ancestors and in the central and southern Appalachians we hold it true its not grandstanding its taught from generation to generation..not from school but our own families
Beautiful family , wow folks proud , lovely young lady may y'all be blessed Thanks for the Great reaction, Old Army Dog here , The Texas Gent
Welcome ❤️
Thankfully when my siblings and I went to school we learned the history of the Star Spangled Banner, and hearing this again makes me happy and proud.
👏👏👏👏🇺🇸
😂🤣😂🤣😂 Well that is on par with the American Mythology our schools have been teaching in lieu of American History for almost a century or more now. The above fairytale is barely based on historical facts.
Love watching you! My heart leaked out of my eyes. Thank you for teaching your beautiful daughter about how America was born. Bring civics and citizenship classes back to public schools! God bless 💖🙏😘
Thank you and your welcomed 🙏❤️
Brought me in tears when Both of you put your hand on your chest and reading the Psalm .Patriots.
❤️❤️❤️🙏
Thank you for this reaction. This is why we should look to the FLAG and respect it,,,, it means FREEDOM for us all. God Bless You and your family
Thank you and Bless You And Your Family Also 🙏❤️
Great reaction,.... It's so great to see a beautiful young family, that loves this great country of ours! No we are not perfect, yes we have our problems, but The United States of America is still the best place in the world to live, work, play and raise a family. We are all so fortunate, especially in these times, to be living here.
And I agree with Peter Torrez before me, it also brought a tear to my eyes, seeing the two of you with your hand over your heart during the singing of our National Anthem. I can tell just by watching you two with your little daughter, that you are wonderful parents, and your little girl giving everyone watching a big, smile, wave and a loud BYE was soooo freaking cute!
I'm an old guy, but it does my heart good to see Americans that still love our country, even as we go through times.
All the best to all three of you!
Thank you 😊
Happy to see your child involved. You are her REAL teacher. Walk the walk. God bless you all.
Thank You God Bless You And Your Family Also❤️🙏
Start teaching them young. Grow up with good habits like wanting to learn. As a kid, their JOB is to learn, learn, learn. So that when they grow up, they can make something of themselves and also live the American dream. Have their own family. Teach them as they were taught. You can't just ignore your kids and expect the school to teach them. Especially these urban city schools. The drop out rate is so high. Yet many kids with such a disadvantage can still get a good education and go to collage or whatever else. Always starts with a stable family with a Mom and a Dad!!! That is what I see above.
Thank you for the great video. It makes you think differently about the star spangled banner!!! You are a beautiful family. God bless.
Your Welcome and THANK YOU ❤️
Thank you for crossing your hearts. Nobody does that anymore and it breaks my heart. My dad, twin, cousins, uncles, and grandpa served and it means the world that you respect them and our flag. God bless you.
Your welcome❤️
From one military brat to another, thank you for your service. It's a hard job, loving and letting go of those in uniform. I honor and appreciate your family's sacrifice for our freedom. Be blessed, Aaron.
God bless your family. It breaks my heart when i see people spit on the flag. And disrespecting our country when people died protecting us . God bless the USA
God Bless You And Your Family Also🙏❤️
People died protecting the flag from falling on the ground!
These people really have no idea how easy of a life they have it these days and it's because of all the Amazing American's from the past. Was it perfect? No, but things like Slavery got fixed, We fought a war over it. This country wouldn't exist if they tried to stop it when it was being created. Sometimes you can't get everything you want. You just hope you can fix it down the road and our ancestors did. So many American's died in the civil war in the process of fixing that. Personally, I think even without the war, in a few years it would have ended anyway. Slaves were not cheap. So only the rich could own them. The cost to buy. The cost to feed them and house them. The cost to hire people to watch over them so they didn't run away. Things like the cotton gin were being invented. Just hiring people to work for you was becoming cheaper than owning slaves.
So few American's actually owned any slaves back then for the reasons stated above. People's views were just overall changing that slaves just weren't right. It would have ended whether the war happened or not. Just a little later I think if the civil war never happened. We'll never know. 5-10 years without the Civil War and I think it would have ended anyway. That is still 5-10 years of being a slave, but over 600,000-800,000 American's on both sides lost their lives. Was it the right move at the time to make?
How many of the 10.7 million Africans were shipped directly to North America? A TINY fraction, Only about 388,000!!! The rest went to the Caribbean and South America. Of course they will start having kids and so the numbers will grow, but still it's really a pretty tiny number overall of those actually being shipped to the U.S. So it needs to be put in perspective. So around double American's died over the number of slaves brough into this country. Yes, few of those were also black, fighting for their freedem also.

SO FALSE!!! This IS the history they teach in schools.
There is another part of history they dont want to teach. CJ AND RINA YALL SHOULD KNOW BETTER.
@@syriouskash537 no there is no other history on the anthem people need to see and stop trying changing American history to fit you liberal ideas just like 1619 project shaming people for listening to true history and all because of a third verse yet if you do a little history not one person believes that it was racist..... because of the definition of words back in 1812....
@@allismama
Listen white girl.
That VERSE you want me to pretend isnt in the Anthem? TALKS ABOUT ME BEING A SLAVE FOREVER.
By the way.......
You DO know Blacks have their OWN national anthem right? We arent tied to America the same way YOUR people are tied to it.
YOU MAY LOVE THIS COUNTRY.
But we merely DEAL with it.
--------------------------------------------------
ALSO WHY... DO WHITE PEOPLE LIKE YOU.....
ALWAYS feel they have the authority to tell other races of people how THEY should feel, about how YOUR race treats THEM??
----------------------------------------------------
Exactly what are you defending? That your history towards Natives and Blacks, Latinos and Asians isnt as bad as THESE SAME PEOPLE say it is?
Is that your point?
@@syriouskash537 you do know you arent the speaker of all black people right? Maybe listen to the story and ask yourself why someone would want you to be so passionately disconnected from it.....hint it has to do with living on your knees part. Slavery was the way for thousands of years, everywhere, all colors. America got rid of it in less than 80 years after winning this war. You can focus on the negative and keep listening to the racist elites but the more people wake up, the more alone you'll be in your hypocritical ideology.
I remember learning this in school and the song and flag has always meant so much to me. But time allows the memory to fade. This should be part of the yearly 4th of July celebrations.
👏👏
Just like what you were taught in school, this story is American mythology, fabricated by a man of the cloth to spread dangerous American exceptionalism and the fabricated belief that this country was some how founded on Christianity, which couldn't be further than the truth. Btw, if anyone thinks we should be or are a Christian nation, then you're no different than the fundamentalist that push for sharia law, stone women to death when their husbands are unfaithful and attacked the towers on 9/11
@@sunshynff I don't recall demanding people be put to death for not believing as I do. So, no it is not like Sharia law.

Your welcome we are honored ❤️
This is why as a people we do not take a knee u stand with Bravery and Honor u stand for our flag. I really hope people learn from this. Stand up be proud of the men who lost there lives so we could have ours. Half of us know this story. The schools have failed our children and our self’s as this should be the first thing we learn. I hope people now understand why our flag can never be on the ground or burned. These men knew how important this was. It’s about time we all knew too. Thank you for posting this. Ya’ll are the cutest family. God Bless

The flag that flew during the battle was the smaller storm flag. The flag at the Smithsonian (that FSK saw) is the garrison flag raised that morning after the British began to retreat.
I think there's a copy of the flag still flying at the fort which was never repaired but is still there.

Thank You ❤️🙏God bless you and your family also
This is a great reaction video,, and your daughter is adorable...I see some people commenting on a few lines that are in one of the other verses,, and always seem to read it incorrectly because a certain word is in the verse. There is nothing wrong with any part of the anthem.. People try to make claims that it is in someway, pro
-slavery... It isn't in anyway... What is wrong is peoples ability to comprehend what they are reading....This is what it says - Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave from terror or flight, or the gloom of the grave........So what does that mean?
That the Patriots blood that was spilled, washed away the Pollution...The Pollution is that the British had invaded our country, and their footsteps polluted our country....And while they were on our soil, everyone was terrified and feared for their lives. ...From the hireling and slave.....or in modern terms we might say...From the richest to the poorest...All feared the British....The Star Spangled Banner doesn't say that one group was more important than the other, just that everyone was united in the horrific circumstances that war had brought to the US....to all of our homes.....
Thank you and that’s true❤️🧐👏🙏
Navy vet here. I appreciate that you sat there with your hands over your hearts. The song brings a tear to my eye every time I hear it, but watching you two being SO respectful, definitely brought a tear to my eye. Your daughter is adorable!
Thank you so much!
It was so beautiful to watch you my precious Bother and Sister in Christ. This is why we sing the Anthem at football, baseball and so many events. People that scorn it are wrong! This battle was fought for this country and everyone in it. It may have taken awhile to get there and we have a ways to go but know this...our country is barely 300 yrs old. She is a baby in reference to the rest of the world but SHE IS FREE! We are free unlike any other country in the world. Unity is a must for the Bible says "a house divided can not stand!". This is what our government and too many people that think they are powerful enough to put thought's and ideas that are wrong in our heads. Stand tall for that beautiful little girl and show that you are proud to be a free AMERICAN! God bless you guys.
I wish this still meant something. How I hurt in my heart for the day this means something again
Y'all Rock! This brought tears to my eyes. Why this hasn't been taught in schools I'll never understand
Thank You and it need to be taught in the future hopefully ❤️🙏
Tears in my eyes to see your hands go over your hearts. So many have forgotten the price paid. Much love from SoCal, USA.
❤️
Their were many black families that worked at
fort McHenry. and also fought as patriots and were in the American militia. They too gave their lives so that the flag will keep on flying. That is a story most do not know about and it needs to be told...Great reaction from you both, and the respect you have shown to our beloved hymnal "The Star Spangled Banner."
Your welcome🙏❤️
I wonder what could be accomplished if we all gathered under one roof and watched that video together…
🧐we should 👏
Chills every time I hear Star Spangled Banner. So much American patriots blood of every color shed to protect us and keep our flag flying including my brother.❤️💙😥🇺🇸
When you two put your hands over your hearts, you got a new sub and more respect than you know. I grew up on Fort Bragg, where being an American meant something. God Bless both of you and im proud to be your fellow countryman.
Thank You..God bless you and your family also ❤️❤️❤️
I am 51 years old. My grandfather came to America from Denmark before WWI. He got off of a ship from Scotland. He literally got right back aboard a ship to fight in WWI for the USA. My grandfather, the Viking King of Denmark, is what his Army pals called him, anyway, he used to tell this story over and over again. He was very proud to be American. Lots of his offspring fought and died in so many wars after that. WWII, Korea, Vietnam, I served in a few, but the reasons, the politics, the powers that be, our leadership, were never the reasons that any of us had in mind. The reason any of us served was this story. This, Our National Anthem, is special. One of a kind. As my Grandfather would say, "Your story is this." Yes, if you are doing the math, he was 51 when my mother was born. Makes me chuckle because I wonder if that isn't the reason his pals gave him the "Viking King of Denmark" nickname.
Unfortunately, too many people have no idea that there are actually FOUR stanzas, this is just the first one. Back in my youth this battle and the origin of the song were taught in middle school. But that was a long time ago as I am now 65, and a retired Marine.
Thank you for your service
We are all in together. Love to everyone that respects the flag.
❤️❤️❤️🙏
You two nearly brought me to tears when you covered your hearts. Thank you for this beautiful reminder of what those early Americans endured to be free.

I can understand why people would feel the need to protest and feel they are oppressed or whatever. But I hope that after seeing this and knowing the story, people can understand why people who love this flag and the country it represents get so upset and angry seeing it burned, stepped on, or people taking a knee. I can understand why Tommy Smith and the other gentleman, who’s name I forget, raised their fist during the National Anthem in the 1968 Olympics. But they stood on their feet and I can respect that and I think if the NFL had done a more respectful protest there wouldn’t have been the same outrage.
Ture👏👏
Taking the knee is not disrespectful at all, it is a respectful way of standing for American citizens that have been murdered instead of having their rights respected. The flag is a powerful symbol of freedom so when people see the rights of others being trampled on, they have every right to protest. Our founding father's expected us to fight against injustice and respected protest, they were fighters themselves. The color of a person's skin should never be an excuse to murder them. If we don't stand up for others rights, who will stand for ours?
These players are on their knee's when they're in a country where they can play a GAME and make millions doing it!!! If you want to protest the police, I think there are better times to do that than when you're on the job working!!! Doing it during the National Anthem is the worse possible time to do the whole knee thing. It has nothing to do with the police. With the quote of Dying on your feet then living on your knee's, they are actually doing the wrong move in the first place by getting on their knee's during the NA. That is why so many people have a problem with it. It's just the wrong time to protest, let alone in that way. They don't understand the History and why what they are doing is so wrong!!!
I do agree there are a lot of BAD police. There are some good police. But death by cop for a black person is such a TINY, TINY percentage. It's higher for whites, but still, Black on Black crime, Murder is 1000 times worse. When black Baby's, kids, teens are getting shot and killed and by other blacks, why do none of these athletes seem to care about that? BLM doesn't give a crap about that either. It's pretty disgusting. It's a War Zone in places. Why is that? I think a lot of it has to be because of a lack of FAMILY'S The Dad rarely in the picture. Women getting knocked up and maybe having 3-4 kids by 3-4 different males. That alone keeps you poor. The kids have no Dad to look up to them and guide them and so they end up joining the gang to fill in that missing hole in their life and that of course leads to gang life or drugs and shooting others, etc and then maybe jail for most of their life.
That needs to change!!!
Before anyone comes for me, let me say I love my country, and my flag, I served in the U.S.N. I'm not saying any of this to disparage anyone who fought or fought and died for our flag, I'm a Mayflower (and preceding the Mayflower) descendent. I've had an ancestor fight in every single U.S. war, starting with my g,g,g grandfather, Ebenezer Snow who fought in the Revolutionary war. It's because I DO love my flag so much that I want the real history to be known, not some revisionist lies.
I'm sorry, but while it is a moving story, it's not historically accurate in the least :( There's not much (or close to any) of it that's true. We were no longer "colonies", we had been states for 36 years during the War of 1812, and 38 years when Fort McHenry was fired upon in 1814. Francis Scott Key did not go alone to a British ship to negotiate the trade of numerous prisoners, he was accompanied by British Prisoner Exchange Agent Colonel John Stuart Skinner and they were to negotiate the release of a single man, Dr. Beanes. It also had nothing to do with "American Christians", nothing to do with religion, but that's what you get when a preacher writes the script. Actually, there's way too much for me to try to correct. If you care to know the FACTUAL story, read this article
www.smithsonianmag.com/history/the-story-behind-the-star-spangled-banner-149220970/
Ok thank you we will be watching this
I read the article it doesn't say much about the attack and gives more history about those who had it in their posession and restored it. Washington's family were Brittish and their age old estate still stands in the U.K., is older than any building standing in America. The American flag is actually the Washington family coat of arms long before it became the American Flag. The very first flag to stand on American soil was staffs made of eagle feathers by the Native Tribes. Those staffs are still standing in Tribal communities today. The statue that stands on top of the dome at Capitol Hill is actually a Native American woman wearing an eagle headdress because she represents the truest history and image of the land.

@Richard Sims (heavy sigh) yeah yeah yeah, whatever.
Oh my goodness what a precious little girl. That smile. 🥰
Thank you❤️❤️
This version makes me cry. I have my children listen to it every year at the beginning of the school year.
I love this so much!
❤️
Maybe it's because I grew up on a military base and went to schools on base-- but we were taught this in school. (And I'm 52-- so I was in school a loooong time ago-- so maybe that has something to do with it too.) It really is a shame that kids aren't taught this in general though.
By the way, I totally stumbled onto this video by accident-- and I'm so glad I did! You have the most precious family! That little one of yours is a DOLL!!! That smile and giggle!! So adorable!
Thank you so much ❤️ and hopefully they start teaching in school and don’t have RUclips teaching it for kids.
@Tracy Keeney, yeah, I think it's the military base thing...cuz I knew this story too, but so many don't. :( We (military brats) also had to stand for the anthem before our movies too, but most civilian kids only hear it at games or parades. I am more grateful every single day for being raised on Army bases for most of my childhood. God bless the USA!
That little angel is just too adorable... God Bless.
Thank you and bless you also❤️🙏
Hearing this again ,made my heart so very proud again to be an American. I have always been patriotic, this renewed that feeling. Thank you for sharing.
Your welcome ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏👏🇺🇸
The story of the United States is the most amazing thing you can ever study.
We are an amazing people.

There are at least four verses to our national anthem. Take the time to read the total anthem.
There is nothing wrong with any part of the anthem.. People try to make claims that it is in someway, pro
-slavery... It isn't in anyway... What is wrong is peoples ability to comprehend what they are reading....This is what it says - Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave from terror or flight, or the gloom of the grave........So what does that mean?
That the Patriots blood that was spilled, washed away the Pollution...The Pollution is that the British had invaded our country, and their footsteps polluted our country....And while they were on our soil, everyone was terrified and feared for their lives. ...From the hireling and slave.....or in modern terms we might say...From the richest to the poorest...All feared the British....The Star Spangled Banner doesn't say that one group was more important than the other, just that everyone was united in the horrific circumstances that war had brought to the US....to all of our homes.....
@ Mary Greeley I concur.
There are 4 verses. They just complete the story that the man told but they are all equally beautiful and can be found on youtube
Omgoodness you all were so great❤️💯 Thank you for showing such respect & for wanting to know the history behind why so many get so angry and offended when our flag is disrespected. Beautiful family and such a beautiful lil girl you have💯 Too the LAND OF THE FREE & THE HOME OF THE BRAVE!!! ❤️💖❤️
Your Welcome and Thank You ❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸
Thank you for your pledge to teach your daughter the meaning of our National anthem. We need more parents to teach their children the true meaning of our national heritage. I am proud of you both. God bless you!!
Thank You God bless you too❤️🙏
I'm curious. How many flags do you see displayed where you live? Is there a way for you to add to it? A flag magnet on your car, in your window..? Look for them; I think you will be surprised. Other countries...not so much.
I feel that it is important to note when your neighbors and businesses do so.
GOD bless America; at least we're trying.
Ok we will 👍
@@CJandRINA Be well my friends.
Don't let CRT in the schools make your daughter a victim.
You know the important stuff; family, hard work, and earned self respect,
"Darkness cannot drive out Darkness; only Light can do that. Hate cannot drive out Hate; only Love can do that." - Martin Luther King Jr.
Francis Scott Key wrote the song in 1875. it did not become the national anthem until 1931. two verses had to be omitted. I ask you to research William Carney. in my eyes, he is the greatest American hero that ever lived. he dropped his rifle to carry OUR flag.
Wow definitely going to look and if a video is there we will show people what he have done.
@Justin Bailey you're correct about the anthem being adopted in 1931 & about William Carney. His story is amazing! You're incorrect about the when the anthem was written though. The Star Spangled Banner was written in 1814. That's one of the ways this video is not quite accurate. This song was written about the War of 1812. We were not colonists then. We were already a country, with a government & a constitution. It's still a powerful video and I think more people need to see it.
Thank you. Beautiful family! Beautiful Americans!❤️🇺🇲
Thank You ❤️🙏
Bravo!!! And what a fine education you are providing for your your little daughter. You are good parents and patriots, I know because your hearts are showing.
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
God Bless you both!! Congratulations to finally see and hear the truth🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 thats why they want to take out George Washington so we kneel instead of standing together... Whitney Houston sang it the best.
Thank You god bless you and your family also 👏❤️🙏👍
Im glad those men didnt take a knee back then!! Wow. If only everyone knew the story behind the song, so many people would understand one another
👏👏👏
While the story as told by the narrator is not 100% factual, I agree with your statement. True Americans will always fight for the freedoms which we hold dear, be it for ourselves or our fellow man.
@@YSongCloud yeah, pretty sure all the back & forth dialog would be a bit hard to confirm, but great story telling tho.
God Bless you.
God bless you also❤️🙏
Truly awesome to see a beautiful American family full of pride and love for their country. Happy independence weekend! Love and blessings to you and yours.
Thank You 🙏 Happy independence weekend to you as well
I find once you know the story, the song has more meaning in your hart. Enjoy
👏👏👏
In public schools, it is more often taught how to burn the flag and how it is a symbol of oppression.
This is why I do private schools.
Teach her to stand for freedom and only bend a knee before God!🙂🙏
👏👏👏👏👏❤️🙏
Your daughter is absolutely adorable! She was such a joy to watch and I hope *Our Country* will bless her and you! 🇺🇸💞
Thank You . God bless you and your family also ❤️❤️
Thank you both for your commitment to your beautiful daughter that she will look back at this video when she gets old enough to understand the true meaning behind the Star Spangled Banner. You are ABSOLUTELY CORRECT that this should be mandatory history education for ALL children. The meaning and human sacrifice behind this National Anthem should be known by ALL AMERICANS!!!! Thank you all 3 for sharing this with us.. We are and always will be Faithful to our beautiful country for providing us with the FREEDOMS that we all to often take for granted.. God Bless the United States of America!!!!!!!!!
Thank You 🙏
