The Four Freedoms were stated by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in his Annual Message to Congress, January 6, 1941.

The memorial, symbolizing these aspirations of mankind, was designed by Walter Russell, given by Women's National Institute, and dedicated to the memory of World War II hero, Captain Colin P. Kelly, Jr., June 14, 1944.
