Summary Of Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Four Freedoms

In the State of Union addresses “Four Freedoms”, by Franklin Delano Roosevelt he discusses the state of the country and where is going. He writes to Congress and American citizens in order to encourage unity and inspire both American citizens and Congress to work together and improve the country. Roosevelt establishes that if we unite and make sacrifices, e will have a brighter future and he supports this claim by acknowledging expectations, proposing improvements and predicting a better future. Roosevelt begins his argument by acknowledging expectations in order to show what is expected of American citizens. For example, he states that the basic things that are expected by American citizens are, “political and economic system,” (1). He acknowledges
these expectations through similar sentence structure is the quotes, “Equality of opportunity,” “Jobs for those who can work,” “Security for those who need it,” “Ending of special privileged,” and “enjoyment of scientific progress.” He then proceeds to propose improvements in order to encourage Congress to bring immediate development to our society. A clear example of this is when he makes the statement that all American citizens should respond to the social call for immediate upgrade and clarifies it with the repetition of “we” in a neighboring clause to that we need to work together to solve the problems that are presented in the country. Finally, he closes his argument by theorizing that following these “four essential human freedom” is going to make secure and he repeats the word, “world” and “freedom” to clarify the outcome of these freedoms, with that is going to make the world free and secure. Through this approach the author establishes the sate of the country and the direction that is heading to, in order to encourage unity and inspire Congress and American citizens to improve the country
