A wide-ranging collection of speeches and a worthwhile resource for students of American history. --Booklist

A golden celebration of the multicultural voices who demand the U.S.--and the world--do better. --Kirkus

An important addition to American history collections. --School Library Journal

Strong Voices: Fifteen American Speeches Worth Knowing is a collection of significant speeches, made both by those who held the reins of power and those who didn't, at significant times in American history. Read the original words--sometimes abridged and sometimes in their entirety--that have shaped our cultural fabric.

Introductions by acclaimed writer Tonya Bolden provide historical context and critical insights to the meaning and impact of every speech. Illustrations by award-winning artist Eric Velasquez illuminate what it was really like at each moment in history. This collection includes the following:

  • Patrick Henry, "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death"
  • George Washington, Farewell Address
  • Red Jacket, "We Never Quarrel about Religion"
  • Frederick Douglass, "What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?"
  • Sojourner Truth, "I Am a Woman's Rights"
  • Abraham Lincoln, Gettysburg Address
  • Theodore Roosevelt, "Citizenship in a Republic"
  • Franklin Delano Roosevelt, "The Only Thing We Have to Fear Is Fear Itself"
  • Lou Gehrig, "Farewell to Baseball"
  • Langston Hughes, "On the Blacklist All Our Lives"
  • John Fitzgerald Kennedy, "We Choose to Go to the Moon"
  • Martin Luther King, Jr., "I Have a Dream"
  • Fannie Lou Hamer, "I Question America"
  • Cesar Chavez, Address to the Commonwealth Club of California, 1984
  • Hillary Rodham Clinton, "Women's Rights Are Human Rights"

Strong Voices includes a foreword by #1 New York Times bestselling author and celebrated journalist Cokie Roberts, as well as a timeline in the back of the book, along with letters to the reader from Tonya Bolden and Eric Velasquez.

Strong Voices is a tremendous introduction to the extraordinary words spoken in history.

Bed storytime
My grand daughter is enamoured with the character in the book Stick Dog, he and his friends are always hungry and work out plans as to how they are going to get something to eat. My grand daughter likes the way Stick Dog is the leader in a unobtrusive way, she reads part of a book on her kindle each night before going to sleep. I have purchased all the books of Stick Dog by this author for her because she wants to know what else he is up to next. Great reading for 10 year olds.

Definitely a Must-Have
Scent: Sandalwood
This beard kit is legit. The sandalwood scent is clean and manly without being overpowering, which makes it great for everyday wear. The oils and balms actually soften coarse beard hair, reduce itch, and leave the beard looking healthier and more manageable. Packaging feels premium and the pump bottles are easy to use — no mess, no waste. I’ve tried a lot of beard kits over the years, and this one hits the sweet spot for quality, scent, and value. Highly recommend if you want a well-groomed beard that doesn’t smell like “baby powder mixed with perfume.” If you have facial hair, you’ll notice a difference after the first use. Worth every penny.

Works great & smells good!
Scent: Sandalwood
I was concerned the facial wash would be too harsh but thankfully I was wrong. Every part of this kit compliments the other. My skin and beard feel noticeably softer, and I haven't had any acne breakouts. The scent is masculine but not too strong. This is now my new routine.
