  • The Illustrated Four Freedoms: FDR, Rockwell, and the Margins of the Rhetorical Presidency
    The Illustrated Four Freedoms: FDR, Rockwell, and the Margins of the Rhetorical Presidency JAMES J. KIMBLE Seton Hall University This article examines the rhetorical failure and eventual resurrection of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s (FDR’s) Four Freedoms and the implications of this transformation for conceptual- izing the rhetorical presidency. By charting the phrase’s initial flop and the related troubles of the administration’s official Four Freedoms pamphlet, the essay argues that FDR’s ideal was restrained by the government’s reliance on a diegetic approach to propaganda. The appearance of Norman Rockwell’s Four Freedoms series in 1943, in contrast, embraced a mimetic approach. I conclude that Rockwell’s paintings and their attendant publicity blitz dramatized and personalized the president’s Four Freedoms, fostering a surge of identification on the home front and ultimately launching the ideal on its ascendant course into rhetorical history. Mr. Lasswell laid especial emphasis upon the Four Freedoms. ...Heeven suggested means to make them more than rhetorical devices. —Leonard Doob (1942, 8) On October 17, 2012, a moving dedication ceremony took place on the southern tip of New York City’s Roosevelt Island. The occasion featured former President Bill Clinton and a host of other dignitaries—including Mario and Andrew Cuomo, David Dinkins, Michael Bloomberg, and Henry Kissinger—participating in the unveiling of the Franklin D. Roose- velt (FDR) Four Freedoms Park. Speakers and visitors alike marveled at the stunning four- acre site’s inspiring design, the product of famed architect Louis Kahn. Against the magnifi- cent backdrop of the urban skyline, FDR’s legacy must have seemed as timeless as ever.

The stock market crash of 1929 had weathered expectations of prosperity, pushing millions of Americans onto unemployment lines and into a gripping despair that showed no signs of relief. FDR arrived on the national stage and promised recovery. He declared boldly on that fresh spring day that “this great nation will endure as it has endured, will revive and will prosper.” Few knew at that moment that he would become the nation’s longest-serving president and that he would prove himself to be a brilliantly capable statesman who would guide Americans out of economic peril and through the unforeseen challenges of war.

  • The Forgotten Freedom of Assembly
    The Forgotten Freedom of Assembly John D. Inazu* The freedom of assembly has been at the heart of some of the most important social movements in American history: antebellum abolitionism, women’s suffrage in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the labor movement in the Progressive Era and after the New Deal, and the Civil Rights movement. Claims of assembly stood against the ideological tyranny that exploded during the first Red Scare in the years surrounding the First World War and the second Red Scare of 1950s’ McCarthyism. Abraham Lincoln once called “the right of peaceable assembly” part of “the Constitutional substitute for revolution.” In 1939, the popular press heralded it as one of the “four freedoms” at the core of the Bill of Rights. And even as late as 1973, John Rawls characterized it as one of the “basic liberties.” But in the past thirty years, assembly has been reduced to a historical footnote in American law and political theory. Why has assembly so utterly disappeared from our democratic fabric? This Article explores the history of the freedom of assembly and what we may have lost in losing sight of that history. I.

    Papers of The Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial Foundation The papers were donated by Isador Lubin, w. Averell Harriman and Basil O'Connor. Quantity: 20 linear feet Restrictions: None Related Materials: Material relating to the Foundation will be found in the Papers of Isador Lubin, Basil O'Connor and Eleanor Roosevelt. The Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial Foundation had its roots in the Roosevelt National Memorial Committee which was organized by Basil O'Connor in May 1945, at the request of Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, to consider a suitable memorial to the late President Franklin D. Roosevelt. President Harry s. Truman agreed to serve as Honorary Chairman with Mr. O'Connor, the former president's law partner and executor of his estate as well as head of the Warm Springs Foundation, serving as temporary chairman. A planning committee of the Roosevelt National Memorial Committee was set up on May 3, to serve as a clearing house for ideas on a memorial. In the succeeding months two considerations emerged which would significantly impact any future Roosevelt memorial. The first was whether Roosevelt should be memorialized by a ''dead'' memorial i.e. a monument, statue, etc. or whether the Committee should memorialize the President "in a living, active, alive way.'' O'Connor favored the latter since he said that FDR had opposed such memorials for other people. The second was the need to establish a foundation. To this end, the O'Connor and Farber law firm reserved the name Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial Foundation in New York State in mid-May 1945 to preclude any other group from using the terms ''Roosevelt,'' ''Memorial,'' or "Foundation.
