Sobre este título
For 250 years, we have debated what it means to be American. This question shaped the compromises in our Constitution and the debates we’ve been having ever since – spawning abolitionism, secession and Civil War; populism, mass migration, and global leadership; movements for reform and the backlashes to them. In All We Say, Ben Rhodes tells the story of fifteen speeches – some iconic, others long forgotten – which have both shaped and reflected the argument Americans have been having from our founding to the intense divisions of our time.
Through riveting and beautifully rendered accounts of the people, movements, and moments that produced these speeches, Rhodes traces the history of our battle over identity. The result is a singular and revealing portrait of America itself: a nation divided between two stories – one of inheritance, power and exclusion, the other of equality, striving and belonging. Drawing on a decade writing for Barack Obama, Rhodes also shows us how words can redirect a nation, what makes a speech enduring, and why oratory is a unique form of persuasion in American democracy.
From Benjamin Franklin’s call for compromise at the Constitutional convention, to Alexander Stephens’ case for white supremacy as the cornerstone of the Confederacy; from Martin Luther King’s dream of true equality to Donald Trump’s rallying cry against democracy itself, these speeches remind us that history is a living argument. At a time when American identity and the truth itself is contested, All We Say offers a fresh and powerful look at who we really are and who we could still become.
