Description

Dr. Carson speaks with Xi Van Fleet, a survivor of the Mao Zedong Chinese Cultural Revolution. Xi Van Fleet's harrowing experiences growing up in China during this tumultuous period have given her a unique perspective on the dangers of communism. Now living in America, she has a dire warning for the United States. As Dr. Carson reminds us, "It was Khrushchev who said to Eisenhower over 60 years ago, your children’s children will live under our system." In this thought-provoking interview, Xi Van Fleet shares her personal story and draws parallels between the Cultural Revolution in China and the current state of affairs in America. Her warning to America is clear: the encroachment of communism is real, and its consequences are dire. It is crucial to recognize the erosion of individual freedoms, the suppression of free thought, and the manipulation of education as signs of a dangerous ideology taking hold. Only through vigilance and a commitment to preserving liberty can America avoid the fate that befell China during the Cultural Revolution.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
