Four Freedoms



         


The Four Freedoms are a set of freedoms United States President Franklin Delano Roosevelt famously outlined in his State of the Union Address on January 6, 1941 (the address is also known as the Four Freedoms speech). He outlined the following four freedoms, which he argued were fundamental freedoms all humans ought to enjoy:

  1. Freedom of speech
  2. Freedom of religion
  3. Freedom from want
  4. Freedom from fear

Roosevelt's Four Freedoms speech inspired a set of four paintings by Norman Rockwell.
