Examples Of Franklin Roosevelt's Four Freedoms

Franklin Roosevelt brought his Four Freedoms to congress on January 6, 1941. His freedoms included; freedom of speech, freedom to worship God, freedom from want, and freedom from fear. These freedoms were made during World War II, which either gave people hope, or made them question it. The freedoms were his way of telling Congress and America that the world can come to mutual agreements without using war. “The world order which we seek is the cooperation of free countries, working together in a friendly, civilized society” (Primary 193). People questioned these freedoms since they were made up during a time of war. They played a role in American life, because they gave a sense of freedom, hope, and reassurance during the war.
