What happens when a country forgets its own history?
In this powerful episode of Common Sense with Dr. Ben Carson, Dr. Carson sits down with actor and entertainer John Schneider to discuss why America’s founding story matters now more than ever — and why so many young people are growing up disconnected from the sacrifices that built this nation.
The conversation centers around Star Spangled Adventures: The Movie, a new animated film designed to teach children the courage, faith, sacrifice, and responsibility behind American freedom.
Dr. Carson and Schneider discuss:
Why America’s history is disappearing from classrooms
The danger of raising a generation disconnected from sacrifice
Why storytelling shapes culture
How patriotism became controversial
The spiritual foundations of America
The importance of family-friendly entertainment
Why freedom can disappear faster than people realize
The power of curiosity and historical understanding
How division weakens a nation from within
This episode is about more than a movie. It’s about whether the next generation will understand what it means to be free.
